no, but you can clearly tell it's louder than factory. The guy that owned it before the guy that owned it befor me (2 owners ago) put a ractive fart can on it w/ a 6" or so tip. Sounds cool, looks like ass. plus it was a warning anyway.

5mt swap bits

I'm gathering parts for an 03 wrx 5mt swap into my93 SS and i'm not sure what to do about a clutch. I found a "Stage 2" Exedy 3puck for a good price, but I don't want it to be too grabby for a daily driver. What are some options out there in the 5mt community? http://i40.photobucket.com/al...

Same hers, only really had to adjust it when i first got it. It was set at 5 (boring) so i turned it up. Accidently set it to 15 (no instructions and a little trigger happy + no FCD) so needless to say i turned it back down. It's running around 9.5~10 now and is fine.

I'm assuming there's classes and such where you can learn techniques and the like but are there any close-ish to southern or western mass? Oh, and I know I saw a link on here somewh...
