HaHa funny I get a company car so this is just a weekend toy. This summer I had it stored in my brothers garage and I just recently sold my Saleen so thats why I brought the Hawk back home. I know I've probably seen your car around. Quick question is your Magnaflow loud or quite? I'm looking to get a new catback. Thanks John

Yea that would be great if you can check my clutch master what day are you available? I take it I would have to buy a Mcleod ajdustable master since I have a Mcleod clutch. I have the borla and its way to load my wife hates to drive in my car and I need to change my exhaust. Pm your address and # or you can come buy my hse.
