sorry Brad, i was just letting our neighbours down South know it was a local shop throughout Southern Ontario. so in answer to your question...yes, it's chain wide.

here, you can look @ the Midnight Madness sale that starts on Friday.

sorry murph, didn't mean to jack your thread like that.

Thanks for the compliments. I don't care if you use that idea. Afterall, I doubt I am the first person to come up with it, plus any inspiration I can give you guys the better!

Just two pics I snapped today. I figured I would show of a little bit of flex. I also removed the center caps on the wheels, so let me know what you think.

Sounds exactly like my 96 Blazer with the AEM Brute Force intake, and they both look pretty much the same but the filter is terrible. I feel if anything it's restricting more air then the drop in filter. While I didn't notice any difference in performance with the intake, the difference in sound was worth it, but add a Flowmaster 40 series in combination with this intake it really makes the sound complete. Also had a new cat put on last March so it gets more airflow right into the muffler. The Flowmaster 40 series has a deep rich tone and at higher RPM's everyone swears it's a V8. At low RPM's it has a fairly loud groan, especially bouncing off cars and walls next to you it sounds like a gurgling sound. When under heavy load (filled the truck with close to 1000 pounds of paperwork in filing cabinets when I was moving stuff out of my friend's dad's office in Manhattan and I never heard the exhaust so loud. Going about 20mph drop it in 1st and it sounds like a jake brake haha. Had to floor it the other day to avoid getting read ended while my manager was having a conversation in the parking lot and he said couldn't hear the person in front of him over the exhaust and I was probably 100 yards away. Definitely look into the Flowmaster, it turns heads! \m/
