I really struggled in deciding between SWP and Lightning Red. Part of my reasoning for SWP was to not match you, Josh. I ♥ my SWP though. Yum!

What's attractive about the TubroXS? I was reading a research on the quality of the supposedly used steel in the exhaust systems. You should check it out. When I finish writing this paper, I will try to dig up the thread on 3GWRX.

Dawn, I'll pass on soulfood.

I am indulging in chocolate chunk cookies tonight. Total fat kid night for me!

As far as I know chicken and waffles are soulfood.

Then again, the only "souldfood" items I will eat are mac n'cheese & cornbread. From what I've seen on FB, my sister got all the black blood. I got all the white.

They're offering it for $600 on their site because of a small dent in the muffler. As far as the quality of exhaust systems I can tell you that magnaflow uses low quality 409 grade stainless that rusts like crazy in NEPA winters. I know because I had one on my LGT, I think turbo XS uses better stuff.

I'm almost certain I'm going with the borla for my car, and they use much higher quality stuff.

:think: after reading that I'd say TXS uses the same crap as magnaflow. magnaflow mufflers and tips are a better quality stainless.

My biggest regret with the LGT is that I got the magnaflow exhaust instead of the borla because I wanted to save a buck, not anymore!

I agree with you completely, Jason. My biggest regret with the TR is I did everything the cheap way. Ebay exhaust, cheap map, STi springs, and some other basics. I bought the limited because I wanted nice things, and I would rather keep it stock than put crap on my car.

BTW, you DESPERATELY need a short shifter. When I saw your car, not knowing it was yours, my first comment was that I sure as hell don't miss that shifter.

I'm trying to knock out my credit card, whcih should be done this or next payday, but after that, some finishing touches- red tails, new front mudflaps (cut mine down at an angle on accident), and a shift boot to fit the SS better.

It already has the oem sti short shifter, I like it and its not too short like the kartboy.

My credit card is screaming this month:giggle:, I want to take it easy this coming month before I go all out on an exhaust.

I can't afford any other trips this year. I'm a broke ***** this year. Boo for bad sales!

Jason, maybe it's the shift knob that makes it look so big. I love the KB SS. Had it in my old one too.
