Default CUSTOM CUT-OUT - Sweet

I found a guy in my city that has a 2000 SS and owns an exhaust franchise! Take a look at the custom work his guys did for me. Great job, very clean and a great location . . . . .

I'm getting some tips welded on at the same invoice (like this . . .)

that looks sweet! very good idea to have it at the bend over the axle where the restriction occurs... instead of bending the air up it just goes straight out. very nice design, seems like it would work much better than a cutout in the middle of a staight piece of pipe...

I have been planning on doing the same thing. I just have to find time to get to the muffler shop. It looks like he did a good job on yours.

I didn't notice that. Although it was raining like a bastard on the way to the shop, so it might just be wet.
