Default Three mods = Oh my!!!

I picked up a 98 Auto Coupe a few months ago. Money is a little tight right now but I managed to scrape up enough for a 3.42 diff. The other day I modified the exhaust. I did a total muffler bypass. Today I installed a Blackwing intake. The car is an animal!!!! I do plan on getting a proper exhaust soon, but this isn't bad at all!!! Just thought I'd share.
