I know what you mean though, I can't STAND heavy traffic. North Jersey is terrible with traffic, the closer to the city the worse. Its too bad you never made it a bit further south. Its not all so bad

this area of the US is a complete joke and ive been to both east and west coast.

hahaha, welcome to the tri-state, i guess we are just used to it. i never really gave it any thought about how complex our area is. never been to texas ,but i been to Ohio, long flat straight roads put me to sleep.

Welcome to NJ/NY area where we pay exorbitant fees (tolls) to drive on pot holed highways.

F the NE, i just got a bill in today telling me to pay the 1 toll i ran. $2 in toll, $25 in fees. what a corrupt way of raising taxes when you have almost 1 million people per square mile.


kyle, i installed those headers the next day when i went back to jersey. my guilty conscience wouldnt let me head home from when we met up. it was pretty straight forward, only issue i had was that i didnt realize that i wouldnt need those extensions you had on the x pipe. i had everything on and i couldnt figure out why it wouldnt line up. almost took everything off and it occured to me you had said something about those extensions.

ill try to get a video up here tomorrow.

-R

PS-thanks for dinner, the steak was really good. you definately need to give me a shout when you are in the DFW.

Yeah, mine's set at 95 so I know I'm approaching the "go to jail" zone.

that dakar E39 is F*ckinnn cool!!

Raza - that's bs about the toll... every time I am in DFW I use the tollway (I go through the tag lanes since I'm generally following other board members around) and I've never heard a thing about it.
