Replaced the cats with straight pipe and a dynamex mufler...



It is very load now so trying to decide if I want to add a resignator to the system to dull it down a bit - probably will.



I had to remove the cats as I guess the H2's can have issues with those (Not sure if it's on the 08 and newer models) that if they are a bit plugged - they send mixed readings to the computer which can give you the "stuttering" in the transmission. She shifts smoother than a baby's bottom now so Will was dead bang with what the problem was!

Funny - SHAW had no clue!



I wanted to do the lift myself but in the end - Will had most everything apart anyways with what he was doing so I had it all done there... What a difference in the tie rods and how the feel of the road has improved. One less thing to worry about...



So we may as well meet at the campground I guess eh?

How can I find you guys on Sat evening?

[/quote]

Hopefully between the instructions Brian posted to the camp site on here earlier, and the signs he'll have out, you should be able to find your way in. Since I'm not familiar with the area, I can't tell you if it'll be easy to find or not, but it reads like it shouldn't be too bad.

Definately looking forward to seeing you out there and the mods you've done since last year---------

I will keep my eye out for the signs, expect me around 7:00pm.



I will also have my radio with me, so I might give a few call outs if I do get lost.

We're loaded and ready to head out of Calgary in the morning. Hopefully we can get an early start and find the campsite.

Looking forward to seeing everybody out at Waipourous this weekend!

Cheers---

So last night someone tore down all he signs...



Go up forestry trunk about an hour you'll pass the gravel pit wiaparus valley road water valley turn off. And you want to turn left on hunter valley road.

Sorry everyone I'm not at all impressed that someone would do this.

Hope everyone makes it.

Well that was nice of them <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ngHead.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':banghead:' />



I was kind of wondering if that would happen, but I didn't think that somebody would actually take the time to stop and get out to take the signage down.
