How did you get it on without welding? Did you get the shop to add in clamps/flanges? I would want to avoid cutting/welding so I can cleaning swap back to OEM when necessary as well.

Sweet, I found a shop that is willing to do the entire job for $150, parts and labor. I'm thinking of going with resonated tips. Does anyone have any sound clips of this setup or similar?

Here's the raw video clip

Outside warm revs (using my iPhone 5)

Outside cold start + rev to 2k (using my iPhone 5)

Inside cabin (using my mobius dash cam, mounted near the rear windshield)
Shifting around 3k rpm, windows are rolled up @ 2:50

I guess some idling / low speed inside cabin sound clip (windows open, I think). Valet parking for me.

Yea it's some sort of tube clib.. It's about 10inches long and contains rubber inside so the exhaust fumes does not leak.. And its tightenet with 3 bolts..
