I have converted...

Originally I wasn't going to do anything more to the car but I got really bored. So, this is what I got today. The tips still need to be messed around a little to get it more straight.





Before:





After:







Oh yea, I also got my resonator and Mid-muffler deleted.

Yes they are...I was gonna go with the 3.75" but i thought it was too big. So i went with the 3.25" but now i think it's too small. I wonder how much of a difference the 3.75" compare to the 3.25" makes.

3.75 is just the right size. I got those after thinking they were too small as well.

Looks pretty cool bro


In retrospect had I been on the forums prior to doing my custom catback, I probably would have done exactly what you have. saved ALOT of money

^^ I figure we're not getting much performance with a custom/catback system. Why spend over 500 dollars on a expensive catback just for sound? It's a cheap mod that sounds nice...so why not...lol

I got the 3.75, sometimes I think it looks too big without the body kit. Thinkin about swapping straight cut for slant cut too now, if you wanna trade. I can't tell from the pics though, yours are slant right? Look great!

^^ Yea, they're slanted. I thought about getting the straight cut but I like the slanted look cause it kinda looks like the Apexi WS...lol

Thanks for the comment
