Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

      Dude, how many miles have you driven your car with that on there? Why didn't you ask first? Holy crap.



      Absolutely nothing is going to happen because you used a vw muffler. It's cool. Just had to hassle you a little.

              Do you honestly think changing your muffler would hurt your car?

                      no,, switching the muffler shouldn't do anything bad.

                      But, one thing to be aware of with the exhaust system is that if you have a big leak or you don't HAVE a muffler, it changes the back pressure to the engine and the exhaust gases getting to the catalytic converter can overheat the catalytic converter. It could also cause engine ramifications over time I believe, but I'm not so sure about the details of that. Something to do with the exhaust valves but I could be wrong.

                      But switching the muffler to a vw one would not cause such a problem.
