For those people who have to deal with snowy, sandy, salty roads during the winter: Do you put your Olds away for the season? What do you drive during the winter?
I'll post pics of my truck and my past winter vehicles shortly
... It's been pretty quiet around here lately so I thought I'd try to spark

I got a Magnaflow oval muffler and it sounds pretty good IMHO. No raspy tone. Just nice and mellow. And thats on a 4
banger. I am guessing that on a sixer it should sound better. Just a muffler change alone will not yield you much power though. If you want more power, you also need to upgrade your pipes. For all three engines on the alero (2.2, 2.4, and 3.4), a lot of people suggest 2.5" ...

That does look pretty bad. What brand rotors did you use? I have seen some online that are supposedly warranted for life. Anyways, I am not much a fan of drilled rotors. I have read a couple articles that have pushed me more torwards the slotted or OEM ones. _________________ http://www.

I used to drink a lot more "better beer" than I do now- I've been drinking cheap beer for the last year or so, though.

Rolling Rock. You can drink one after work, and you're not full, but there's still lots of flavor.
Sam Adams is good stuff- Have you ever tried Fat Tire? It's not a Sam Adams brew, but it's of similar quality. _________________ Andrew...

For the a/c its prolly a bad
condenser, roll down the windows if your cheap, get it checked before you buy a new one just in case as they are not the cheapest things ever. The whining noise could still be your power steering even if it feels fine. Try turning your wheels all the way right and left while in drive to see if it gets worse. Also check your pulleys to see if they are oiled, if not ...
