My stock exhaust tips are in pretty bad shape. They are the stock black tips that come with the sport package.




I think the stock tips are 2.75" if im not mistaken. I want to just swap out mufflers along with a nice exhaust tip while getting a bit more growl from my engine, performance gains would be nice too . Ive checked out a couple and like the exhaust tips magnaflow has.

I like these 2

Part #14815

Part #14816
http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...=main&id=10202

The only difference from what I see is the exhaust tip size. The 14815 has 3" tips and the 14816 has 3.5"
Both have 2.25" inlet, that should also be correct right?

My last question, do you all think I can fit the 3.5" tips or should I go for the 3" tip muffler?

Thanks

Im running the 14816 magnaflow exhaust with a factory bumper, fits nice, the sound is amazing.

Get the 14816. Looks better bigger.

Oh man... I'm convinced! The tips look sweeeet. Dump the resonator or keep it?

Found the Muffler on Amazon (out of all places) for $140 not a bad deal I think

How noticable is the magnaflow sound? Because I know a resonator quiets an exhaust down a lot.

Hows the interior noise with it? Not too bad for a long road trip?

It'll drone around 2k rpm. Not too bad though. My Cherry Bomb setup drones more and that was reasonable for me. I don't mind. Just turn on some music.
