Welcome to the site! I believe you are the youngest on here now? Nice to see even the 16 year olds appreciate the Riv.

Welcome to the forum, Evan
Nice ride( gold edition)

hey guy thanks but yah it has the gold trim i don't see too many other riv's with the gold but i need to find a place to get it repainted b/c it's starting to fade

Welcome fellow C-bus Riv owner!

ok i finally got some new exhaust tips, and i actually did it myself. cut them off went to autozone and put some new ones on. they also add a diffrent sound but it sounds good w/ the flowmasters.

Looks really good! Clean lookin' Riv.

Off topic but, What kind of changes did you see w/ the 2.5 pulley? Big gains? KR issues?

i saw notciable changes especially on the highway. you will defnitley see a hp increase and also works well w/ a cai which will both all add more boost. but no i had no kr issues. just plug in and play. and the car dosent seem as slugish any more

Are you sure? Maybe get one of those OBDI scanners and find out.

so r u saying that i wont be able to notice it? or am i not maximizing the hp by having it set a certain way. but what im saying is if i did and fixed would i notice a diffrence?

It depends how much KR you have to fix it and notice a difference. I could tell when I had about 8* of KR.

I would definately get it scanned though and try and get rid of the KR. Its just safer that way.

yah i have to agree, luckily there not welded on just the ones you u tighten to the pipe. all proably switch it later on and go to autozone or something.
What would u guys think looks best between the 2 or what other ones would u suggest
1.

2.

i think these ones, there pretty pricey but they look good

thats just me tho, i think they go better with the body style of the rivi's

I like #2, they look like mine and I think they flow better with the shape of the back of the car.

I like #2 better.

it looks good but i think im younger then you

Nice looking ride.
You have a generous grandfather.

Haha, I only turned 16 in August and now I have a '95 s/c! It's a very likable car for someone with an eye for design.

Anyway, I'm loving this white/red riv! The dash kit looks awesome, and you could get used to the chrome trim around the paneling. The grille would be nicer if all the bars were chromed, and the fake louvers look slightly tacky, but that exhaust system hints at a fast 2 ton coupe! Nice car!

looks good, I like the wood grain and the vents.. very clean. Is that the engine temp warning light I see on? or is the car not started
