BTW. Thanks for your well wished on the 'Monday Off' post. I think Brynn's reply reflects my feelings as well..

Guys, sorry I've been busy this morning ... guys relax ... it's just the axle back muffler (at least from the pics) ... I'll be getting my full custom 3" exhaust as soon as I buy headers, i'll be sure to put up pix for you all.

3" exhaust? You will lose so much low end torque and hate your car after that. For a naturally aspirated car, you should go for 2.5" or less. Unless you are going for a Comptech SC, then I wouldn't go for 3" piping for daily driving..it's not practical.

accually, just for you all that doubt me and my custom made exhaust..there custom made..those are tanabe hyper medalion or however u spell it..anyways, i loved the way they sounded on my friends gs300 so i went out and got my own..as you can see they are offset to the right/left depending on which side you look at..anyways..the pipes were too long, so i had to have em chopped and fixed so they looked perfect..if he woulda posted the other pics, you would been able to tell better..but anyways, i'll try to post them later on..but yah, the pipes are still stock, the muffler part itself is custom made

yeah i think it looks mint, i apologize for not putting up all the pics, i haven't had the chance, but I will get them all up for you tonight at the latest. but the mufflers are sweet, I think everybody was expecting a custom header back system, which nobody would waste money on for 2.5" non-forced-induction system. i assume we'll see a lot of those once the supercharger is out.

thanks guys, the rims are niche bella 2 piece rims..they don't make them at all anymore..i got a partial sponsorship from niche so i got to have them made the way i wanted..the offsets are 100% custom..which now that i think about it was a bad idea, cuz tires are gunna be a bitch in the future..but yah, i don't remember what exactly the offset is but you can totally tell when you see the rims from the side..i'mma look to see if i can find any pics that i can put from yahoo and post them so you can check out the offset and stuff
