you'll have to spend around 400 bucks after shipping to get SLP loudmouth (get it from www.tbyrne.com) and you'll need a sawz-all/reciprocating saw to cut apart the stock exhaust to get it ou... took me about an hour to do mine....hardest part was getting the dam middle clamp off and getting the rusted pipe loose...(rock it back and forth while pulling ) everything else went on quick...it sounds beastly... and all I needed was a 5/8" deep socket and a 9/16 deep socket..a couple of jack stands and a car jack...easy

Just go with an off road y-pipe and swap the stock one back in for testing. And in texas we have the computer check for an inspection. If your not throwing any codes no one cares. Its still a chance that you may get a visual test, but i doubt it.

a cut out is loud and cheap, and quikly becomes silent
but yoy can buy the loud mouth off of e-bay brand new for 319 plus 40 shipping for single tips
or 309 plus 40 shipping for dual tips, just email the guy who is selling it and they will help you

Got my cut - out from Summit for about $30 -$40 plus about $5 for shipping, something like that. I'm sure a bunch of our sponsers (to the right) have cut outs.
