Find someone to fab your exhaust out of 321 stainless. It won't rot again.

Rob, What the )@*#$%#$ buddy????

Its not stainless you had its aluminized, and when MIKE bought it 6 years ago we didnt offer stainless, i told you this already!

Tallimeca i think yours was Aluminized too, if it rusted it was.

We have been using all Stainless steel for about 3-4 years now. Prior to that it was aluminized piping with stainless headers, cats, mufflers, and tips. Now its 100% stainless through and through.

Hey Jim what the hell do I know ? SS, Alum, all I know is it fell apart

I dont judge things by years I judge them by miles, I can drive my truck to work 3 times a week
for a year and only put a few K on my truck yearly.
AMOF this 00 has A LOT less miles than my 02 (which had very low miles).
IMO NO exhaust system should fall apart with 10k - 20K on it, it's really that simple and
nothing will change my mind about that sorry.....
I DO NOT and HAVE NOT ever blamed you, I know you dont make the system.

Now about that 3" exhaust I bought from Vinnie 2 years ago and still havent got,
CAN YOU HELP A BROTHER OUT and give V his exhaust system back so I can put it on my truck

PS
Big Don tells me TEAM JDM was kicking *** at the event he showed up at,
I hear your Stang is quite amazing these days

I really got to come visit you some day and give you a ride in JDM'S biggest and baddest truck to date
(ok ok so soon it wont be, but hey who ever thought we'd go 2006, 2007, and now into 2008)

But yea get the d3 it is the best head unit I have ever used and I do not regret spending so much on it even with my 7 doller per hour paying job at 16 years old haha

That's it Jim you keep busting Rob's *****.
It's about time he spent some $$ on upkeep of that truck.
That tail section fell off last year if I remember....

Hey Rob stop being a tight wad and get a new SS system on that 9 sec L

Hi Don good to see your getting her back on the road.
Maybe catch up with you later in the year.

Yep...but it was always advertised as a 'stainless steel' cat-back solution to do battle with the likes of Bassani, etc.

Maybe listing it as a stainless/aluminized combination would have forced you to an all stainless solution a little sooner since not too many people would have paid the all stainless price for the aluminized junk that was being pedaled.

And will I ever get my IAT sensor that was promised 18 months ago?
