:cheers: finished the exhaust finally on the six speed(don't ask, it's the 4th exhaust on three different cars in the last 5 weeks).

Sounds great to be back with muffler eliminators(besides it matches better than the Corsa did).

You remind me of a saying we used to have about British motorcycles...You can tune them during the weekend, and ride them during the week...Or tune them during the week, and ride them weekends...But not both... :D

:cool: I'm right there with you Scorp. I found my problem. The Fidanza was defective. No I'm not kidding. It was burning the clutches up because of a high spot. She feels better than ever now !!!! :steering:
