Default Ordered my exhaust...

Went with the Pype's Bomb Axleback(mufflerless) and the Magnaflow Tru X-pipe(no resonator) to replace the factory resonated H-pipe.... decided that by the time I bought two decent looking tips, and had some straight 2.5" pipe cut and bent to match the stock axleback, I could get the Pype axleback for almost the same money without the headache, just cut the stock axleback off now and theirs will slip on to be welded... hell two 4.5" stainless tips are about $105 a piece, so there is $210 in tips alone plus the cost of getting the new pipe cut/bent... I only paid $270 for their axleback... can't justify another $650 for a full catback that offers almost no gains or sound improvement... my next exhaust mod will be Doug Thorley LTs though

i'd like to have headers, a cai, and a stall before the spring, and a tune of course don't really count that, its a given
