Thanks, it's on the list. But it's rather difficult, as Mazdas are extremely exhaust sensitive, and the length of the shortest possible system has resulted in a 5" tailpipe that can drag the pavement loading on my extended to 12 foot ramps...with the trailer dipped down at the back.

hey, it's tough to keep up with the truck trailer and car maintenance, much less the "development" required to run up front, and the "fancy projects" like that get deferred. Maybe this winter, although i have some space/time reserved in my one car shop for some quality time with the old 911.

(and just for the record, I don't blame my neighbors for disliking the sound at all, but when I make the effort to only do it during proper hours, and they don't call in other neighbors with equally loud sounds at worse hours, AND they aren't such quiet church mouses themselves, I get annoyed.)

And they are rude, or inconsiderate. Like, playing baseball in their 50' x50' backyard, and the ball lands in my drive, next to my M3. Now it COULD dent the M3, but I say nothing. They call over and ask for the ball back, I say "sure" and toss it, and do they say "Thankyou"? Of course not! My friend was visiting and was wide eyed.
