    Is my sub blown?? Please help!!

    Well last december i got a system put in my truck... the amp is a rockford 500 watt amp. i had it powering a cheapo 12" sub that was rated at 400 watts. I think the power of the amp finally blew the sub cuz it makes a loud popping like a blown speaker and is creating no low bass. Is it blown or...

    Engine not starting???

    the problem was indeed an oxygen sensor. I got it replaced and everything seems to be running smoothly as of now. I thought it was odd for it to go at 38,000 miles but i guess thats how new engines are these days. Thanks to everyone for your help and assisting me in solving this problem.

    K&N air filter??

    I'm thinking of going to pep boys tommorow and picking up a k&n drop in air filter. I'm not really looking for any performance gains but just that air sucking sound. Would the filter give me that sound or should i save up and go with a whole intake system? Thanks

    Replacing stock speakers

    I am looking to upgrade my 4 speakers. Is it better to go with a round speaker or would the 6x8 produce just as nice of a sound? Also do you think i should run an amp to these speakers or go with a 10" sub? I've been in this dilemna for monthes lol. Any suggestions wuld be appreciated. Thanks.

    the quest for the same color!

    well white bulbs r legal here so im fine. all i was tryin to do was match everything up. Having clear bulbs that look dirty or yellow defeats the purpose of having white bulbs... so i want something that is nice and white

    Getting Exhaust on Friday.....

    i did the y pipe cuz my shop said its easier for them to Y the pipes... idk why though. But the 50 series sounds good at idle at has a very mellow sound through the rpm band. Around 3k it does get a little less deep but doesnt sound nething like a 4cyl. My sound is actually pretty consistant...

    Getting Exhaust on Friday.....

    well after many weeks of researching i finally got my exhaust done. I went with a single in/out flowmaster 50 series. At idle it has a nice little rumble to it and a mellow tone when i give it some gas. I feel a tiny bit of a throttle response too. Overall i like i it so far.... not a bad deal...

    Getting Exhaust on Friday.....

    well at first i was gonna use the 50 series SUV which was a dual in/single out muffler.... but then my shop told me they would y the dual in into a single and connect a single in/ single out 50 series delta flow with 2 1/2 inch piping.

    Getting Exhaust on Friday.....

    Well I am finally getting my exhaust put on.... this is the setup I'm having done: dual into a y pipe into a single in/out 50 series flowmaster. The exhaust shop gave me an estimate of 250 for everything. I'm praying that it comes out sounding good. I don't care too much about performance.... I...

    Question for guys with dual in/ single out exhausts

    cool... i guess i'll go with the 50 series suv.... pep boys siad they'll order it for $120 shipped. This sound like a good deal? Then i'll just have a shop build me 2.5 piping and contract the 3 inch down to 2.5

    Question for guys with dual in/ single out exhausts

    My 99 sport has the dual in/ single out exhaust. The only muffler I am able to find for it is the 50 series SUV... but even that has a 3 inch outlet. Is it possible to put this muffler on with my stock pipes and still get the same sound? I'm afraid custom piping on this dual in/ single out will...

    Ravin Exhausts...

    well i was just at midas today and they told me they don't have anything for dual in/single out. They only have dual 3" in and thats too big of a piping. So the ravin is no longer an option i guess. I guess now I'm goin to look into the 50 series delta force. Would this muffler give my truck a...

    Ravin Exhausts...

    I've heard some pretty good things about these systems and was thinking about gettin one for my 99 sport. Has anyone here had any experience with these mufflers. And will I still get the same sound if i just install the z55 muffler and leave the stock piping? Any opinions would be appreciated...

    Question on aftermarket exhausts

    Well i have a friend who could hook me up with a flowmaster muffler for a good price. Should I just bring the muffler to a local shop and tell them to weld it on with custom 2.5 inch piping. Is there anything else I should tell them to do? Do you guys recommend keeping the resonator on? Any help...
