New exhaust yet again...

Well, i had some extra cash to throw around this check, so i thought id throw some at a better exhaust. Now most people will say it sounds like rice blah blah blah, but anywho, i got 2.5in piping from the cat back into a 2.5in inlet and outlet magnaflow muffler. First off i must say the car idles quieter than before. And second, if anyone is interested, our stock pipe is 1 3/4 in. First thing i noticed was the car seems to rev more freely, like if im in 2nd gear and just give it some gas it picks up a lot better. As soon as i retrieve my g/f's digital camera i will have some pics. Other benefits i've seen is increased gas mileage. Pics should be up somewhere around the end of the week, and hope it will bring some competition the to pacesetter exhaust thread.

How much did that set you back? And you get all of the piping done custom and just had the muffler put on?

Well, i had already previously purchased a magnaflow muffler with a tip for around 180. And for the piping to be custom made was only around 85, so it wont break the bank if you choose to go the custom route...
