      Yeah, I didn't care much for my glasspack either.

      • Found out why the car is getting louder. Hole in the muffler haha. A Walker SoundFX is like $24 and will work until I do an actual exhaust when it's B8 time.

          Thanks, the Nolathane was what I was wondering about.

          • Ordered some exhaust and intake parts. Tubing in and out up front, and a FlowMaster/Magnaflow knockoff Thrush muffler.

            And bungeed up the VAF so the failing old makeshift intake pipe doesn't fall off.
            Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.

            • My car is badly in need if some cancer repair. Over the last year or so I've collected a couple of rust free front fenders, a relatively rust free hatch and drivers door. Today I got started on prep work. Bondo in a couple of dents and general clean up. All the bits I've collected are red so that will help speed the process a bit.

                      I searched eBay for Nolathane and got nothing. Also searched for Festiva and got no Nolathane. How did you find them?

                        If it don't fit, use a bigger hammer!

                        • Interstate or Optima? Not all batteries are created equal.
