Hey guys ... not hijack the thread but i thought i'd get you some of your questions which basically were the same as mine answered cause i'm a sweet girl

Anyways i spoke to the guy KC who owns the below exhaust shop in North Jersey and though he doesnt carry the Magnaflow x pipe he can easily have this installed at his shop. Also i've also posted a site where one can get the x pipe at a decent price ( $80's ) rather than in the mid 100's You can thank me sometime sooon

As long as you get the right size Magnaflow X-Pipe, the muffler shop should not charge more than an hours worth of book time.

I just got mine done two weeks ago, it really is the best mod for value!

i was gonna get magnaflow x-pipes but my shop said they didn't carry it, but they had their own x-pipe instead. Part + installation turned out to $150 for me and its sounds AMAZING. it doesn't make a difference if its a brand or not, its just metal. just make sure its stainless steel that won't rust.

This video is of my car the night i got my x-pipes, the sound has changed since this video as well and its sounds MUCH better in real life. take a look and tell me what u guys think.

The manual really lets you control the sound well.
