i think the hp gain increases as the diameter of the tip increases...

BTW. looks nice. what's the part #?

Are they bolted on or are they welded? And yes, the part #? Looks great and you don't have to shell out for the entire system.

Thanks y'all!

They're p/n 20154 and they're clamp on; I know they're just aesthetic, I just wanted tips that look a little different from the standard ones (I almost went for ovals but decided on these round, angle cuts).

Great, I'm jumping on. 2.25 inlet, should work with my 04 Accord too. I'm seeing that they're $50 a pop, is that what you paid? Thanks

Like the look...I really thought the borlas added about 15 a tip, magnaflow is usually 10hp/tip...maybe its other way around. one think i do like about the 2g is the tip selection...with my 3g i had to cut and weld the stock tips onto aftermarket mufflers...cant have as much fun with SS.

Remember they clamp on toward the muffler end so you can adjust how far they stick out. I put them so that the muffler pipe was flush with the inside bevel edge. The muffler pipe is a couple of inches long so you have room to play with.

yeah.. when my car was raised on the lifts, i saw that you can just pop the tips out by unscrewing that little screw at the back end of the tip..

but how long does it take to actually take the thing off and put new ones in? i didnt actually do it since i dont have an extra set of tips nor did i want to reallly pop mine out..

5 min. max (most of that was looking for the right socket and lining up the tips straight).
