My car sounds COMPLETELY different open vs closed. I wouldnt bother going too thick with the metal. .125 should be more than enough.

Thanks for the help. With no cats and no plate, it's just to loud for me.

I have my plates at home if you are wanting them, just cover the shipping. I put an e-cutout, so I have no use for the plates now. Otherwise, its just the same thickness as the tubing.

And to previous post, it sounds way different open vs closed.
