Looks like a nice piece, although I wouldn't want an open o2 dump on my daily, but that's just me.

Hmmm, I guess I am used to driving the open down pipe dsm that I didn't think an open dump was loud at all. Now I might have a differen opinion even though I don't really get on it very often any more.

Rope method seems like its pretty easy and fail safe. I would have to take off one of the manifolds which doesn't seem like a big deal. Or would you have to take off both for the rope method to really work and make sure nothing got left behind?

I think I might know what you're talking about. I think we might have something like that in my garage my dad bought. I'll have to look into it!

Hmmmmmm. The other manifold/o2 housing seems like a cheaper option haha. Just kind of looking at my options at the moment. First thing is cams and timing belt. I'm already getting ahead of my self, new cars are exciting!
