well, i found a local Midas that has Ravin's in stock. Even he said the he's sad to see Ravin go, the Vortex has no-where the sound of the Ravin. of course theres a sound clip. remember this is A 4cyl that you're hearing.... don't expect too much

ok guys, i re-recorded the startup and rev's seperately, and no longer have a 12.4MB file. I appologize about having that stupid huge a$$ file there. next rounds on me! :cheers:
here's startup: http://media.putfile.com/start-up9233 (1.04MB)
some rev's: http://media.putfile.com/revs95 (1.80MB)
more revs's: http://media.putfile.com/revs22 (963K)

what kinda car is that? sounds good... and damn good for an L4, not ricy imo

2000 s-10 PU 2.2L 4cyl

so Mike,
sounded real good for a four. the idle is lower resonance than the
import ones, that create a raspy backfire.
sounds like a sport truck should.
how much did the parts and labor set you back?
does it feel like you lost any mid range torque?
or gain any top end, when you mash the pedal on C470?
still have your cat? or a hi-flow?
with less restriction, mileage might increase slightly too, have you seen?
inquiring minds want to know?!

haven't opened it up on c470, thats comimg up soon. In fact I don't work tonight.... It set me back $269.00; $150.00 was labor, $100.00 for the part + tubing. Still have stock cat, for now. Accel seems MUCH quicker and smoother. I don't even realize that i'm cruising at 50-60 until i look at speedo.. I'm gonna top off the tank to see if theres a noticible increase in MPG.

what are some recommendations on Cat's??

i have a highflow magnaflow, hasnt set my light off in my 98 s 10.... and those wheels are on your dime???

no those wheels are on neighbors car....

^^that answers why there was a 4 lug wheel on what i thought was a s 10 lol

hahaha "how'd he do that?" no if i get different wheels, they'll be at least 17". I noticed my truck sits quite low, maybe 2-3" lower than a buddies 2001 2.2L. shocks are next, i suppose.

get 18's and i say that because of tire price, 17's being an awkard size tend to be a little more pricy

Ravvin is what i have on my firebird, and i love it. :iceslolan
my truck has a flowmaster 40 series and it sounds pretty good, but nowhere near as good as yours.

thanks rdbird.

well guys since this is probably related, While driving home today, my SES come on. Came up with P0141, O2 sensor heater Bank 1 sensor 2. I haven't climbed under my truck yet, but do you think they (midas) may have forgotten to replace my O2 sensor thats in my tailpipe??

I should add that I had sensor 1 (in the mainifold) less than 8,000 miles ago
