Default On The Way

Bit the bullet and ordered the Borla Stingers / Quad Oval this morning. Should be here next Wed. I second guessed myself for weeks on this. I listened to so many sound clips, my wife thought I opened up a drag strip in the basement. The money was one thing, but the fear of too loud was the biggie. I'm in deep with her if they are noisy at idle.

You will notice a decrease in gas mileage with them! That's because your foot want's to hear them at WOT all the time.
