Being over 25 years old your car doesn't need the cat anymore unless local laws (where you have it registered) make it mandatory. You can get a complete true dual exhaust system from any of the major suppliers. You'll have to check with them to see if they ship to an APO.

If you can get the true duals. by all means do so...it's less expensive and the car will run better.

APO??

AAFES??

I know APO is for shipping or mailing to miltary, but I don't really have a clue what it stands for.  Forgive me, but I don't even have a clue what the other one is.

Sorry abouot that APO is a pacific mil mailing address. AAFES is the big "BX"! Army Air force Exchange Service. Its kind of a rip off they inflate prices because for the most part you have no choice but to get it there as you are overseas.

Sorry about that Ken, I forget sometimes that not everyone has dealt with the military before.  We speak in acronyms.

The AAFES thing is kinda an inside joke with us military and retired military. 

Flem- I was in Germany for 16 of my 22 years and then went to Iraq as a contractor. In Iraq, AAFES is king on the camps. I can't even go to Burger King anymore.  AAFES ruined it for me. Yeah, I know all about AAFES but I couldn't resist the urge to pick on you.   You at Yokota or Kadena? From the flight suit, I'm guessin' you're aircrew.  Never got to the Pacific, wish I had now.

Nope, I was never in the military.  The last time they pulled the draft lottery, my number was very low.  About 29 or so.  That meant I was getting jungle boots and going to VietNam.  Then before they called me, they stopped the draft.

If they asked, I would have went.  I almost joined after that, but didn't do it.

I can relate to acronyms.  I have just about as many in my business.

so I was down at the PX the other day checking out their wicked selection of turbochargers...actually, funny AAFES story.  back in the day, at AIT, some girl got caught stealing panties from the exchange.  BIG trouble.

Anyhow...a stingray in Japan?!  Man, how I envy you...tear up some rice for me, man.
