Yall really have been lucky Brew. My brother and his fiance have it now, I've had it once right after I got my second shot, my wife got it twice after her shots, this **** is rough but I think omicron will help boost natural immunity throughout the population with its mild symptoms and super transmissability. That being said I don't care what kind of sick people are they need to be mindful of others.

The "J-style" one referenced is a Heimholz resonator. There's a LONG thread about removing drone from aftermarket exhausts on the Corral. I added a set on my Mustang, and knocked it down to a barely-noticeable level. Figuring the proper length requires some math, but I also seem to recall seeing that someone commercially made a "trombone-style" one that was adjustable.

Great... 7250 new cases reported today in UT.

Just also got a call... someone I spent an hour or so with this morning has a kid that tested positive. ****.


EDIT: Well, 7250 was YESTERDAY. We broke that record today.

Hospitalization rates are way under where they were with the other strains so that is a good thing. Yall know this isn't going to end right? Israel is on their 4th or 5th shot and near 100% Vax rate and are still seeing surges. I'm just tired of all of it.
