... i would say its a lesser known racist term, so it slips under the radar!! :duh

... originally came from "Rice Burners", a term used by Harely riders for bikes that were of Japanese origin

I heard it came from rotory engines and how they looked like a rice cooker...

you might find a large round muffler to low on your car. i run a 2 inch straight through sports muffler, and that is very loud :)

I have baja headers so clearance wont be a problem. I did consider a s/h motor bike muffler..... How do i check to see if the internals are ok?
