Get us some sound clips.

Yea, I am still debating. I am not one much for chrome or billet parts on the outside of the car. Once the exhaust runs, the pipe will get carbon inside and camo the pipe a little more.

I actually had straight pipes out the rear of the car. I am sure loosing 10 feet will change the pitch of the exhaust, and the muffler will also change it a little to.

Pipes look nice. Very clean.

Do you have a problem getting fumes inside the car from that setup (windows up or down)?

The side pipes are badass! Do you have electric cutouts so you can go through mufflers and out the back if you choose?

If you are running turbo, it can't hurt.

I take a lot of flak about those filters. I gotta change the foam to black.
