Sure is... Get the pipe welded at the joints though (right before going over teh wheel and the muffler to the exhaust)

Sounded good from day one (sounds SOOO much nicer with the pipe welded, trust me..)

For about 70 bucks at a muffler shop, get a resonator welded in... Then it sounds like a 600 dollar exhaust...

I have this exhaust, it is great! But like ShortStack said get a resonator and weld the joints! It sounds bad ass... If you dont get a resonator it'll be loud and ricey... And pop a ton...

If you can afford better, get something better. If not, it'll rust after maybe 6 months.

good choice.. youll like it...

Just weld the joints and get a resonator put in... ATLEAST weld the joints (probly 40 bucks at a weld shop)

This stops alot of the rattle if you have any (no rattle after i welded joints)..

The pops are pretty cool.. but make it sound ricey under WOT.

Awesome! I got my joints welded for 20$, it did sound ricey at WOT, so if you dont want that, resonate that! I think I put a 20" or 24".... something like that!

resonators are cheap...

Seriously if i would have known how much it effects the sound of the car i would have had one welded on as soon as i got it (not just the pacesetter, any exhaust with no resonator for that matter)

I cant stress how much more happier you would be with your car if you had one...
