It sounds alright, the whole car overall is kinda loud but, damn the solid mounts make EVERYTHING vibrate lol so not all the noise is exhaust. The motor is in kinda shitty shape, burns some oil at high RPMS, what would that be, valve seals?


Right now the setup is N/A going turbo. And yes it does have a Megan header on it. The connection from the circular shaped flange on the header to the flat flange on the mid pipe isn't the best but I guess it seals ok. Doesn't matter anyway because I'll be making a downpipe that will end with a flat flange.

Hobart 180 MIG, .035 wire w/ gas. It's a nice mig welder. Me and my dad split the package deal at tractor supply. came to about $800 including tank purchase I think. But it had EVERYTHING, a cart, sweet gloves, hammer thing, brush, auto-dimming helmet with additional lenses, Welder, wire, and regulator setup for gas

I lucked out on that one. Some of the others were more HMT-esque. I'm getting better with welding though.

You've got the step up from me, I have the Hobart 140 MIG. I liked the idea of being able to run it anywhere off of 110v. I'm still on flux core and quite happy with it. Mine was $450, came with the regulator, but thats about it. You got all the cool stuff.

Yeah My dad was the one who pushed on a 220v welder. I'm glad he did. It's got a lot of extra power for bigger/ thicker stuff.
