I'm liking the sound of that, is that a xpipe mod? Just wondering because some xpipe mods dont sound that good. Thanks

From what I can tell on the laptop, it sounds great! I've often considered swapping out the secondary cats for a X-pipe...

well tips dont make the car sound different in any way at all, so is that just x-pipe? If so, which x-pipe? I am getting one put on next week, but not sure which one yet.

I love the sound the x-pipe gives on a cold start. Of course once the fuel mixture leans out a bit, the nice popping/burbling sound disappears...too bad.

Did they connect your 2.25 inch pipings directly to your x-pipe or did they do extra modifications?

The one I bought was the 2.25 inch, I just put up the xpipe for you guys to see. They had to install extension pipes for the xpipe install. That will b done with all universal xpipes.

Gotcha

I have the Magnaflow X-pipe with 2.25 inlet diameter... I was just curious when I saw your link that it has a 3 inch inlet diameter

But that's a good find nonetheless... $30 for an X-pipe

im using original exhausted and it sounds too boring. so if i want to have some louder sounds, can i just order the x-pipe and put a new dual tip for better looking?? or do i need to modified the whole exhausted system??
this is 2 products that i found on magnaflow website. do you guys think that would fits??? i just want to make it simple and louder little bit.
http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...e=main&id=9408 (needs 2 set for both sides) or maybe this one??? http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...e=main&id=9417
x-pipe: http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...e=main&id=9464

(sorry 4 my english, i only speak english in a short time)

They're all pretty much the same sound wise... Magnaflow X-pipe is the widely used one by members here in the forum... But lately there's a few products that have been coming out that costs less than Magnaflow
