Alright. i want to start on some mods. i wanted to do a megan catback but im thinking about just doing a axel back with an oval body magnaflow. question is how much do you think that should cost? i want to reuse my stock tip.. im thinkin like 90 bucks for the muffler, tubes and labor like $40?

Or you could buy my GMPP Cat-Back ($300 shipped) and keep in good warranty standards with GM/the Dealership.

welcome to california.. 360 to do $20 tint. bought my car.. 18,500. after all the bullshit fees. 24,500. i just found a place that will do it for 80 (if i have the muffler). so i'll have to go to kregan and by a magnaflow offset/center 14" muffler. but i see every one buying there 18" ones. will there be a big difference? i'll be using the stock resonator if i do this. if i dont do this i think im going to just get the megan.

Dear god... don't remove the Resonator... if anything, add another resonator and delete the Muffler.

Removing the Resonator makes them sound like ****** Honda's.

Until you look at someone who has a nice catback that sounds great and then look at someone elses hacked up piece of ****. I just bought a GMPP touring exhaust on ebay for $200. Just have a little patience and good deals will come around.

Go to Custom Tube's Incorporated for the "over the axle" bend ----> CTI Custom Bends for $95

and then just get a muffler of your choice, good ones go for about $100 or more, including labor you'll probably get it done for $400 total maybe.

I'm about an hour north of I-70 (what I imagine you'll be using)... but my car doesn't move right now. And from the looks of it, it MIGHT be a while, stupid dealership.

And I'm buying WickedSS2005's 2.5" Magnaflow...
