Wagon and Sedan Exhaust?

Will an exhaust built for the P5 also fit on a Protege sedan or will it be too long?

Actually, it will be too short. The P5 exhaust is about 4 inches shorter then a sedan exhaust.

Yup, you can mod a sedan exhaust to fit the P5, but I haven't heard of anyone modding a P5 exhaust to fit the sedan. It probably could be done since the muffler and the downpipe are all the same. Its only the exhaust tip that's longer on the sedan.

Not far from my office at all. If you're ever in town, let me know; I'll take you out to lunch!

It seems that our two fine competing newspapers, the Chgo. Tribune and the Chgo. Sun-Times, both felt that they needed to put out a hip, abbreviated newspaper to market to the XYZ generation, since in their infinite wisdom they know that all 20-somethings have ADD and won't sit still long enough to read a 150 page newspaper. So they both came out with this new little paper at the same, one of which is called "Red Eye" , and I believe the other is called "Red Ball"; pretty original, eh?

So yeah, when both papers came out last year, it pretty much was a free-for-all, cause these papers both literally came out the same day. The first couple of weeks was hysterical, cause I saw vendors for both papers getting into fist fights to stake a spot. And they had all these vendors all over, like a 100 feet apart. It was like trying to run a gauntlet of pan handlers to get to work. And God forbid if one of the competing vendors saw trying to buy a paper, lol!

Crap - what a way to threadjack!

I'm in Little Italy. Red Eye/Red Streak.... what can I say. I like to read it but now they just upped the price from free to 25 cents. As part of the not so rich Y generation I cannot afford this price hike. I will stick to my textbooks on monetary theory.

Oohh, nice! Love going to the original Fontano's there, as well as Conti Di Savoy as well as a couple of other places.

You go to UIC?

And you're right - it was Red Streak. I haven't seen it around; is the Trib still publishing it?

Yes, I go to UIC. What I've noticed is that if you live in Little Italy you either are A. Italian or B. attend UIC haha. Fontano's has some great subs but my go to place for cheap eats is Maxwell Street.

Oh, I'm not sure if the Trib is still publishing Red Streak, I've never really seen the difference between the two since all you really notice is the red, when I find out I'll update you for sure.
