Well I didn't mean my comment to come across shiznitty...I just keep my negative comments to myself when it comes to saying things about other people's rides.  We all put a lot of time, money, and effort into these things so I get a little touchy about negativity.  I sure wouldn't say that I didn't like a certain thing about your car, instead I would just keep my mouth shut.  I guess that's just me.

They were welded down at an angle because that is what I wanted.  I like how it looks.  thats really all that matters:D


True.

Now where is that video?

Here are a couple of vids.  It is rainy here and I just washed the car or I would get a "drive by" video.

Man to be honest its pretty loud all the time. :roxor:  Its really almost too loud but, I don't daily drive this car so it will be OK.

I think what you are getting at is that it idles high?  I do need to change the IAC because it is bad (which I knew before the swap).  So yeah...when its a cold motor my idle is a little high.  I just don't feel like spending another $60 on a new IAC right now.  I tried cleaning it and it helped a little but its still not right.  It seems like that once the car is warmed up it idles better, but not like it should.  If you unplug the IAC it idles closer to where it should.  Other than that no bugs at all!

IAC? What exactly does that stand for?

Would replacing this IAC stop a car from revving really high when starting the car? Every time I start my car and it's sat for a period of more than 5-6 hours, it revs really high.
