It maaaaaay sound a little like that, but it's actually not too bad. (Mind you the last car I had was a BLAZER! )

I'd have left the rear seats out, but I'm not kidding anyone. It's a 4cyl econo-box, I'm not racing anyone and 50lbs isn't making a big difference.

Ok so I'm buying a PWM from Richphotos and just ordered 4 orders of these. (10 per order)


So this is finally in the works.

Also, I killed my sub already. The voice coil separated from the woofer cone. So the plan is for a T1 15" again. Maybe in the middle of the month I'll get one.

Planning on about 20 per tail if i can fit them.

So here's the first of the parts to come in.
One Opti-drive PWM (Thanks Rich!)


I tested it out tonight with a spare led bulb I had laying around and now I can't wait for the led/reflectors to get here. Unfortunately they are coming from china so it's going to be a while.

So I'm debating on weather or not to get some smoked tails or to just retro the stockers. I'd like smoked ones, but I really like the clean look of the stock housings. Opinions?

I would stick with the stockers personally, anything tinted you lose light output too.

Arrgh. This wait is killing me.

In the mean time I decided that I really didn't need the stock airbox on my car anymore.


Now it sounds pretty mean at high rpms. (For a 4 banger anyway. )
