Default Happy CMS exhaust customer!

had CMS build me one of their badass 4" exhaust setups, and.... its badass! i got 2 vibrant race bullets in the 3" y pipe, dmh 4" cutout in the i pipe, and a big hooker maxflo in the stock location. y pipe fits great under my UMI tunnel mounted TA, exhaust exits right under the bumper so its almost invisible like i wanted, and there's good ground clearance on my slammed car. its relatively quiet with my 12.5 compression, and the tone is just what i was looking for with no rasp. btw ryne the issue was the starter and a bad cell in the optima, starts like a champ now

id totally recommend the hooker maxflo, like i said it has a great smooth tone, quiet when you're cruising and loud when you jump on it
