There is always a chance that they've redesigned Fail into their exhaust.

Ya lost me there. What do you mean "redesigned Fail"?

Either way I wanted this method cause I wanted to put it in myself, but I may have to give in.

I mean, they may have had a design that works and decided to make it worse by messing with it. Adding Fail.

Yeah fail is quite prevalent with EF. In all honesty you'll probably be happier with a custom (on off) cat-back system.

Got the Viper remote start, power door locks, and 2-way alarm today.

This thing has more bells and whistles on it than I know what to do with. Definatly worth the money.

CRAP!!!

KFX just sent me an email

Quote:
Note from Merchant: The catback system is in test fitting and then will go into production. we are canceling this portion of your order and request that you contact us again in 8 weeks to see if they are available.

Oh well, still have the short shifter coming!

And got my radar detector today!


Well after many emails, I ended up calling KFX yesterday, and turns out they haven't even shipped the shifter yet! They sent a tracking # today (no free offer or even apology for the inconvience. Hell they could have overnighted it or something at least). I think from now on it's ebay for me.

honestly ebay has some fairly decent things and some of our aftermarket sites have ebay stores. i'd almost say buy through ebay because that way you can get them involved if you're not happy with something.

Well now I'm glad I got the alarm. Someone tried to break into my car Sunday in the middle of the day.

Around 2 PM my keychain went off, I was slow getting out cause I thought it was my brother-in-law messing with me (setting off the shock sensor). When I went outside the windshield was hit in 4 different spots, and the hood is now dented. But I'm glad cause if it wasn't for the alarm I'd be out my radio, radar detector, GPS, and probably the subs too. So now the alarm has payed for itself within a month!
