[Vwdiesel] new SS dual exhaust for my Jetta TD =bigsmileageimprovement!

[Area31 Research Facility]

Thanx Loren and others for the advice regarding my pending clutch
replacement.  I am not sure when I'll be getting one of those elusive round
tuits though.  I've got waaay too much on my plate this year.  Fortunately I
do have use of another car so I can afford to actually park the Jetta while
I fix it up.

I kind of overdid it on the exhaust system fab and am giving my damaged body
a rest by putting my attention into the Petter diesel engine rebuild.  My
elusive piston rings came in yesterday.
