Just received my muffler in the mail today. Going to be installing later today after my shift is over at 1:30.
As for the Dodge Caliber; my brother had one as his first car and we did about 5,000 miles in about 10 months. It may be that it had 140,000 on it, it could be that it had not been well taken care of, or just the design of the car, but it was one helluva POS. Felt unsteady in any corner over 40, no acceleration, wobbled above 70-75 and was just lacking power in the worst of ways.
Then again, if you'd want fuel economy; my brother was pulling 18-20 on his hilly college commute and 22-24 around town.
My brother has since upgraded to a 2006 Acura RL with VTEC. That thing has got power and he hasn't regretted the upgrade since he got it even though he only pulls about 17mpg on 91 octane. He's acutally planing to drop a turbo into it. Ha!
