As you may have guessed from my screenname and by the title of this thread, I am not a Subaru owner. I am a close friend of a couple of members here(blix666 and DrewSTi) and figured I would throw some support towards the forum as I am of the same mindset as most of you anyway! Any way, I am from Mass and my 'dirty' car is a 1995 Mitsubishi Mirage 1.8 5-speed. It cost about $200 five years and 70,000 miles ago. Its my beater and I am damn proud to beat on it!.
I look foward to meeting some of you that I dont know and seeing those that I do at the next NER rally-x. So without further delay I present to you the 'RallyMirage'!

Thanks, for the welcome guys! Glad you like the exhaust, I cant take full credit for it though. Andrew (DrewSTi) thought of it. We were at the Belmont Lodge Rally-X and one of the stock tips fell off. Andrew was holding it in one hand and a redbull can in the other and I swear I saw a lightbulb pop on over his head! LOL! I swung by his garage the next day after work and he greeted me with a redbull can in one hand and a file in the other, sawing away at the top and botom of the can. I figured with all the labor he put into it, I could'nt not use it!

Hmmmm, I wonder if there is a similar sized bottle of jager for one of the tips. Jagerbomb exhaust is infinatlly funnier than just red bull exhaust.............

Doubt it, but I'm sure you can get a Jagr bottle sticker to put right about the exhaust. :mrgreen:
