Thanks! Your car looks sick too. Sorry for the late reply haha I haven't been monitoring this like I should, and I'll do a sound clip soon...I live in an apartment complex so I've been trying to find a good place to rev it out of courtesy to the neighbors since I'd be backing out right next to someone else's bedroom window lol.

You've probably figured it out by now.I'm pretty sure the only difference is that the 12138 has the 2 outlets for the tips and the center inlet as opposed to the offset ones on the 11225. After seeing what another user did here I probably could've gone with some less expensive tips with the single outlet, but I still like the result. They just had to fab a new Y pipe extension because it wasn't an exact fit with the stock setup.

I went with the 4'' tips just cause the OEM ones are pretty big and I didn't want it to look like it'd been "downgraded" with this mod. Still planning on doing the lip kit just cause they stick out a bit, but I wanted it that way so they wouldn't be buried when I put it on.

Sound clip!

Finally:


They were louder the first week of the install, but I actually think it's better that they've quieted down a bit. I'm in sales so it's probably best if my car doesn't make a shit ton of noise as I'm pulling into an office parking lot haha

Its really hard to make out much in that video bc of all the back ground noise. Even still, in park rev'ing videos never really accomplish much. Any chance you can get a drive by
Video done? Thanks.

Definitely need some fly bys and downshifts to get a better idea. I've heard a few magnaflows in person and they sound deep, throaty and clean.
