I have the windows up almost all year round. In the winter for the heat obviously and in the summer for the AC. Maybe when it is cool, I turn off the fans and roll down the windows. In any case, I never found the sound of the exhaust exciting in any way. I prefer to feel the vibration of the engine which tells me if somethign very wrong is going on.

hmmmm.... that gives me an idea

i know you were just playin but sometimes you have to take a break and go have some fun so thats what i did... we shot at old bowling pins. i got them when the alley got new ones they just gave the old ones away. its alot of fun shooting at bowling pins with an AK and a 30 round clip from about 75-100 yrds... sorry you guys who live in a bigger city, your neighbors might not be to happy about that one... but that is my favorite stress releiver!

You think "muffler bearings" will help the break in process?

thats possable... maybe the bearings need to get used to the enviroment with the heat and all and get seated in their races.... ok now we have all gone too far... im done with this post...
