I just got back after 9 months in Afghanistan, on R&R, and I had a few parts waiting for instal when i got home.

1 ) Therma R&D 3" exhaust w/Cat
2 ) MPx BFMIC (3" Core)
3 ) AGP Dogbone Solid Motor Mounts. (already had Tranny Solid Mount)



Well, before these Additional Parts, i had a 3" dump exhaust, no Cat, with ony one resonator to spare any pass byers permanent ear damage.
Also, I had an e-bay (cca knock off) bfmic
Plus a pair of motor mount inserts.

So, to me This was just and expensive swap to "brand name" parts, with the extra confort of a much, much, much quiter car.





Front bumper off, new BFMIC Installed, also not the Crash Bar i've always had is no longer red, I've opted to Paint it black.


Exhaust instal the Hard Way.







And Saved the Easiest for last.






Also, for those who know me, the front Bra is Off, And i'm currenty working on getting the front bumper sanded down and preped for Paint.

I've decided over all, to just put the car into a body/paint shop when i get home for good later this year, That way i know that it will get professionally done, and look new again.

Right now it's 2 shades of silver and black, Not to mention it needs aot of TLC to the body.








Just wanted everyone to know i'm Still alive, And i'll be home for good soon.


Thanks for looking.

woot! glad to see you made it back from the sandbox in one piece. car's looking good.

do you know if/when you'll be going back?

Yeah thanks for serving!

Exhaust setup is clean as hell. A local had the dual Thermal on his srt-4 and it was the best sounding one I have ever heard for our cars.

Still can't believe you are running 15's on your car.

Looks great! Love the PS2 Silver
Are those steelies on there?? wheel pix!

that looks sick. that exhaust is supposed to be sooo much quieter. definitely a good choice for a street car. rolled bumper ftw.

how do you like you g-force sports? i just put on a set, and i like them so far. i'll know once i see how the tire wear comes along.

keep up the good work.

welcome home bud

I like the smaller rims, i guess i'm backwards

FYI - This is the Dual Exhaust, i Just opted not to extend the 2nd exhaust opening from the muffler to the back of the vehicle. I'll try and get a picture to show everyone what i mean by that

The exhaust is very quite, It actually reduces the raspy sound quite a bit as well, Sounds, like a decent, respectable type car now.

I've had the tires for over 12months, and only put maybe 500 miles on them.
However, one thing i can say, you'd think any tire woud develop a flat spot after 8 months of storage, but the 10 or so miles i've put on them the past few days, hasn't shown any. They even feel like the've retained their balance.

Thanks!

Thanks!, Good to have a little break.

Just noticed.. Your battery relocated to the trunk I take it?
That is a BMFIC! You monitor your intake/ambient temps as opposed to your CCA one? Or do you don't have a scan gauge to monitor it? Curious if they go down at all.

Actually the battery is just a mini dry cell.
Here the best picture i could find.


I don't have any aftermarket sensors, outside of the wide band, so i can't really give an accurate comparison.

The MPx BFMIC is a great price on Modern Performance though, (they claim that it's the BFMIC of choose for SRT's in the 400-500hp range, and since I'm no where near those numbers, i don't see any benefit from having this Inter-cooler outside the better fitment, and the better looks.
BTW, the Fitment was awesome,

Welcome back. Your car looks really nice. I like that engine bay shit, and I like the rolled rear bumper.

oh! where'd you get that bumper bra??

OMG






























I LOVE UR LICENSE PLATE!!!! IT LIKE CHANGES IN EVERY PIC!!!

Seriously glad ur back in one piece

OMFG WHAT CRASH BAR IS THAT!? DO WANT!
