FAVORITE MODIFICATION

"My favorite modification just because of how silly it is would be my exhaust system.My Fabspeed TrackTec exhaust has a valve controller that is used to close the exhaust flap when the car is on.It uses vacuum.But in order for me to install the valve controller, I have to tap vacuum inside the engine which is blocked by my roll cage and the cage is blocked by my seats.Removing seats and cage isn't really the issue.Putting the cage back in is a total P.I.A.!!!Last time, it took 5 of us to force the cage in and line it up to bolt it back in. So, how am I controlling vacuum?I searched online and that led me to purchasing a hand pump device that you squeeze to generate vacuum.The funny thing is the pump is a replacement part for a personal enlargement system for men (penis pump). So yes, I have a vacuum line ran from the exhaust up into the cabin of my car and next to me is a small penis pump that I squeeze to close the exhaust valves."
