Oaks99 Rocks!!
We have a bunch of great people participating in this forum. I was fortunate enough to connect with Oak through CF. Drove up to Oak's place last night to install the Pypes catbacks. Install went great (you can tell he's done a bunch of them). Love the sound. Took some idle & mild rev video, but I can't find my firewire to move it over to my PC. I'll post it later.
I had to get back home, so we didn't have a chance to hang out. We'll have another chance here in a few weeks at the next Outlaw event. Looking forward to drinking a few beers and smoking a few cigars with you, bro!
A big thanks to a heck of a good guy

BTW, you got the name wrong. His real name is McGyver.
Did he ever mention how he got so good at installing cat-backs?

you know, it's going to be a beautiful weekend in Topeka. Why don't you drive it down to Heartland Park and meet a few more of us and let us listen to it in person. Heck, registration is still open, as far as I know. What about a one day DE experience?

I knew he had some McGyver in him. Especially when he installed the entire system using only a paper clip and some belly lint

I'd love to run over to Topeka. I can't make it because I'm watching the kids this weekend (wife is flying out to see her sisters new baby).

He said something about this friend of his who was some sort of test pilot of each and every brand and model of catbacks on planet earth. Ever met him

You are in good hands with ESV.
