For all you wrenches out there. I punched out my baffles on my stock mufflers and this is how the plugs are burning. How do you think they look?? Any comments/suggstions would be appreciated

when you say punched out your baffles does that mean you removed them all together?

Put the digital camera to closeup mode and reshoot if you can....usually the flower setting on camera these days so we can get a better look.

thanks, I know its a little blurry, but as far as the baffles go I just punched out that tak welded little pice of metal thats about the size of a silver dollar or so. You can look straight through the muffler and it looks like a cherry bomb, the serrated stuff is still along the sides of the muffler. I think my plugs are border line, maybe a little lean, but I am looking for a PC now for future upgrades also.

Very lean. The plugs should have a little tan color on the porcelain electrode. The whiter the porcelain the leaner it is.
