Exhaust Guru in Wellington

Hi guys,

I know I know, it might sound gay.........but I want to make my Civic a little easier to live with on a daily basis. Since I've put in the new DC Sports headers it's got a real drone to it and I just want to keep it free flowing but try and get rid of some of that if possible, but wouldn't have a clue of anyone in Wellington who's good enough to drive it, listen to what I've got to say and be able to make the required changes.

Anyone got any advice ?

Re: Exhaust Guru in Wellington

If you've got all the items needed i.e resonators, then just go to pit stop in petone, jason is the guy who works there, always does a good job, in your case you could always just stay and watch the process and see if theres any problems that need to be addressed etc

another person is Ron at total performance, but pretty damn costly, mite aswel go to speedtech for that price

Re: Exhaust Guru in Wellington

Will do Fraser, and I am sure Pommy meant nothing by the comment (for the first time, ever, lol) Its just you DO have a tendency to do things RIGHT and yes, you usually spend enough doing it, thats all.

Didnt get anything from you mate, I'll PM you my number. Thanks for the help.

Didn't know if Pommy meant anything by it, actually was just asking what he meant by it...............

As you said, I just like to do things the right way and if that means waiting an extra couple of months to save up for a better part or some better labour then so be it.......... just didn't want people thinking I'm someone who simply throws money at cars........ it's not that, it's just a passion for me....

I'll take back any aggitation Pommy may have taken from my post, wasn't intended that way.

fuckup 'BUMP', crawl back into your hole



sweet canman i really didnt mean anything by it, if anything it was a complement as your cars are immaculate and have been built with the best parts, so i thought in a way money was and would be no object to fix or modify them. sorry for the outburst above. peace

just get a mugen muffler on the end of it. They still flow pretty well and is nice and quite unless you thrash it and then you get the nice non raspy sound.
