Nice. CANT wait to get it installed. Im on a tight budget and i want it loud. Not sure where im gonna mount it yet, before or after the resonator. Gonna do this cheap so resonator is staying in the car for now.

I have been wanting to do something i was gonna cut the mufflers off,but i figured the price of tips and all the other stuff, this would be alot cheaper, and it could be quiet for my long trips.

there is a heat shield in front of the tank and i also put this stuff on the gas tank for added protection.
