Default Quickie Question

So I have a ford thunderbird.. GAY IKR!

But My bf Trey who has that ws6 trans am wants to take my muffler off or something and do stuff to my car. Is it dumb?? I just had a new transmission put in it and it is a V8 4.6 liter or whatev.. Like mustangs or whatever lol..

I am a racer at heart =]

I love going fast and being loud, just think I would be made fun of driving my bird lol... I want to get a trans am soon.. But we will see...

I've seen some at the strip, but if your heart is set on getting a T/A. I would save the money instead.

your car would sound good with some flowmasters on it, but dont let him just remove the muffler. It will be way too loud and not sound good at all.

Dont waste your time or money on that car. Just use it to get around until you have the trans am you really want. Then good luck on keeping any kind of coin in your pocket. The car will suck you dry. In a good way of coarse!.
