$250, huh? Hookless two strap, hi-lift, tow-hooks, first-aid kit?

After seeing your sig, I'd suggest you invest the $250 so that by the end of a year, you'll have more. Besides, once your Dad sees you invest, he'll be gladly to help you do that more, with more money..... :P You really can't do a whole lot on $250 as whatever you do will lead you into something else to spend on, its known as the Just-Empty-Every-Pocket syndrome. But if you really had to spend, I'd look into safety, recovery, and/or communication items. Good luck and let us know what you decided. |

The muffler shop here said that 2 1/2" piping would rob too much back pressure from the motor. He recommended the stock 2 1/4" to me.
My 2 cents.
I still have stock and do not know of any gains, personally. Any body know of gains?

Unless you really plan on doing a lot of mods, it's probably best to stay with 2-1/4" pipe to keep the backpressure up and torque up.

well, I decided to go with asthetics and got some mickey thompson II wheels and use some of my own $. I actually didn't decide until Monday the 1st. Amazing thing is that I placed the order from quadratec Monday morning new years day, and they arrived on Wed. That's only two days, I don't think I have ever had such speedy service.
