Looks good, sounds good, other than that no performance gains.

no performance gains, maybe 1-2 HP. I bet if you went to single instead of dual you'd have about 5-6 gain

Hmmm...I wonder if I custom made a single exhaust instead of the duel? My dad has a muffler shop, so I can ask them if they can hook me up. We'll see

your right web toker, I thought about that right after I posted my last entry! That would look ghetto with two bumper cutoffs and only a single exhaust!

my mom and bestfriend have told me to tell you guys to stop telling me to spend my money; they are tired of my automobiles getting pampered and them getting whats left over which usually consists of change I find in my car by doing things you guys encourage

Couldn't you do a single pipe back to the muffler and split it off into two pipes after the muffler to fill the bumper cutouts?
