Exhaust is done!!!!

Hi boys, my exhaust is finally done. Got it done this morning. I will try to post pics soon. I got a stainless B-pipe with an 18" resonator and a stainless Bullet Turbo muffler and a 4" stainless round tip. It is not loud at all! Slightly a little more deep tone than stock, which is what I wanted. Nice rumble at idle and a deep tone during acceleration and totally quiet at cruising speeds. Total cost $400.

Get a y pipe. a cat back does 5hp peak tops....a catback and a y pipe...thats where you actually gain anything worth measuring.

But if you only want looks/sound then all you should need is an axel back(aka muffler)

Oh and Ma winters suck.

No, it's ALL stainless, and 5 year warranty on labor and 7-10 years on stainless. I will post pics later and sound bytes. I got the set-up at Lou's Custom Exhaust.

Ooooh, I thought about going up there to get a new setup. I'm currently going to school in Troy, NY right outside of Albany, and I was trying to find someone who had an exhaust from them. Is it a 2.5inch setup? Can't wait to see pics!

No, it's a stock size of 2.25". Didn't want an obnoxious sound. It's perfect! Not raspy, ricey, and no droaning. It's got an awesome sound, deep and throaty.

Hi boys, Question on my exhaust set-up. I watched the guys install my exhaust yesterday. They cut off from the cat back, pipe, muffler, and this other big round cylinder shped thing. What was that? What does it do? It just looked like a round muffler.... Thanks
