Other than the CME, I'd say the Corsa tips or Corsa knock-offs.

Get the biggest ones you can. They say every inch is worth 10rwhp, or a tenth in the quarter mile.

If you get dual tips, then that's like twice the power!!!11!!111!!1!!@%@#!1!

There is no right answer to this question. Tip choice is totally subjective because this is a cosmetic mod. It's like arguing over which color is better. Pointless.

Only thing that's open for debate is metal choice. Obviously stainless is better because it will outlast steel. As for design, get whatever YOU think looks best!

Personally, I think the Corsa tips are too flashy and over the top. Yes, I said it, Corsa is NOT my 1st choice. Go on, ban me for it.

Lol, Mike. You rule.


Locked because: Why are we talking about exhaust tips? They do nothing.
