That actually looks pretty slick. You'll have to post up some sound clips as well

Well , unfortunately my exhaust has the rusty/fused bolt syndrome so i`m gonna need torches to get it off , but I don`t have any & it`s a PITA to do this under jack stands anyway so I`m going to have to wait till I can do it after work with the use of a hoist sometime this week .

Hey Bri it's Dennis...i like the PowerFlo CB too. But do you think it would be
to loud if the muffler in the I pipe wasn't there? When i order this exhaust i thought about just runnin the 2 rear mufflers only. I used to run FLP w/o cats
and ran with Borla open..lol. So loud i'm used too. Thanks buddy.

I am also thinking about getting this catback. My current exhuast is too loud and raspy since i did HCI. Eventually I want to replace all my exhuast with stainless steel exhaust anyway I just wonder how it sounds not only at idle and reving but under WOT also. POST VIDS!

Also, what size comes out of the rear powerflo mufflers? 2.5" or 3" I would like to keep my corsa clone tips.

Any exhaust shop can modify the mufflers outlets or your corsa clone tips to fit.

IMHO, I would never change the exhaust setup I have. I had an LM1, but when I switched to Pacesetter LTs and an ORY, I went with the 'Borlamouth' setup and had a show weld in a Borla XR-1 muffler in place of the resonator (not exact fit, so don't expect it to bolt up). And it is just NASTY. I don't want to sound like I'm just blowing my own horn, but I did alot of research before I spent money and still continue to inquire about opinions. So let me be honest, it is loud. Not cutout loud, but pretty close. I won't be getting a cutout. At idle and low RPMs, it is VERY deep and tame. It does show a little rasp in that range, but screams everywhere else. Very consistent sound except for rasp. My friend has Hooker LTs, Hooker ORY, and Corsa's overpriced catback (chamered) and while his sounds pretty good, its not loud and just doesn't have the same aggressive sound as mine. Sorry to type a paragraph, but I feel for your woes. Haha. Hope that helps.

I have LT's/ORY/LM1 + Borla and I don't think it's that loud. It's about the same volume level when I still had stock manifolds/y pipe + LM1, but has a much meaner note to it now. I think it sounds great.

LM1+ORY+LT's was obnoxious though...couldn't stand it.

I just decided to sell my corsa clones with my cat back since they are welded on anyhow so I will just end up buying new Corsa clones, thats why i was wondering the size, then I can just buy the correct size to slip on or have my buddy weld them on.
