    well i was at freedom carwash the week i bought my impala. i was with my crew there and it was getting kinda quiet. so we headed up to hampton to see what was up there. well its my impala, 09 sentra spec-v, evo VIII, and a mazdaspeed. well the leader of the club was in the passenger seat of the mazda and he points up to let me know pull up he wants to run. well ok. we do a 60 roll and the nazda pulls 1 car on me instantly. as we get up to speed i slowly start to catch him by the time we let out i was at my govoner and about 1 car infront of him. then we do a 55 roll same as before he pulls 1 car on me and this time i catch him faster than last time and let out around 90. we get up to hampton and the leader looks at it and says man that thing is fast as hell. "what did you do to it?" he asked. i told him i bought it yesterday and it was stock.

    now that i am headed back home in november for r&r i can put my last few upgradeds on it for it to be done(maybe).

    i have a 3800performance pcm,180*t-stat,pacesetter headers(need to install), MRP? CAI,3.4 pulley, high flow fuel filter.

    i am debating on what type of mufflers to put on it. i am gonna run 3" exaust all the way out so some help with what muffler gives it a good tone would help.
