Default finally got my exhaust!

so a couple of weeks ago i went to the exhaust shop that i have always went to and asked them about how much they would charge for stainless pipes and welding everything together and they said around $500!!!! So I left and decided to go in there again today and asked them again and if i could get it printed out on paper. they said $330. lol and then i said.... can you do it today since i already had mufflers and tips. they said yea itll be close on time but we can do it so i wasnt even planning on getting it done and ended up getting it done today!

Ok so now on how it sounds... i have the non catted hogan downpipe. i got three inch out of that and all he way to the y. he hand made the y and then went to 2 1/2 inch from there into the mufflers. i got 4 inch magnaflow tip and flowmaster super 44s. Its deff louder than i thought it would be and i hope i dont get pulled over but we will see what happens.

When he started he car to check for leakes all the mechanics stopped and came over cuz it got their attention lol. it was awsone.

I will post pics up tomorrow and a couple of videos cuz i cant do it tonight due to rain .

lol oh well on the license plate. im going to try to get another video of driving by and stuff. you dont get the full affects of the exhaust from the video. it rattles some stuff inside the car at times. i really need to get a tuner to disable dod and then other stuff.

Looks and sounds great! You can definitely see that the exhaust flows more out of the passenger side. lol

It's probably not a really big deal. It's like that stock too.

Sounds like testosterone. Flows are always a good choice.
