The one time I forget to update this page to reflect installed mods, someone goes and quotes it. If you can meet me in Birmingham we can roll out together. Im probably gonna take 85 to ATL since I will be in Auburn at the time.

Lexbox, can you give me more details how to change the ignition & foot rest LED? I'm looking to do the same for mine.

Silly question: What's the diff. with Platinum Edition? What special do you get?

We can definately make it happen, hopefully by then we will have at least a few others to roll with us.

Default Torque Masters are installed

I was going to wait until after I finish installing the header today to drop three new posts with pictures. I jumped the gun because there is alot of talk on here but no new pics for the folks looking at this thread. I try to keep it exciting and keep people coming back. The pic shows the Denso's that were in there before I put in the TMs. And yes the car certainly does pull harder. I will take some more pics when I get finished with the header.

Default Strut bar installed

Thought this would be nice instead of the strut bar sitting on a piece of furniture.

Default OBX installed

Finally got the header installed. Now I need a heatshield, I will probably order the LMS since I hear it is double plated and Steve was very helpful to me on the phone during the install.

Here is the link to the DIY guide for GS300 headers that I created for everyone.

Default System Visual

Thought it would be nice to strut my Photoshop skills now that I am done with the stereo for a while. I used a picture of the W7 instead of the stock woofer. Normally I would list the brand/model on the picture like the one from my old car but since the pics are this big and my thread is very detailed, you can figure it out. Page 1 has the continuously updated list or at any time you can simply click the link to this thread from my signature.

Default Open header anyone?

So what exactly does running open header sound like?

I only revved the engine up to about 4000 RPMs because the sound is absolutely deafening. I rev it a little a few times and spike to 4000 RPMs. Then, I back off and go idle then slowly press the gas until 1000 RPMs then increase and hold at 2000 RPMs. Punch it two more times to maybe 3000 RPMs and then cut the mic.

I recorded this using my Olympus DM-20 voice recorder with upgraded stereo microphone. To get the sound clip to you in a more timely fashion I added some pics and turned it into a movie using VideoStudio. The first pic is the cash I paid for my car, then the white on white tux with top hat I wore to UFC 57 in Vegas. Then my best friends son Travis on Halloween and then I start a sequence of pics of modding on my car. Very nice I thought.
