Got the RPI exhaust installed last night. Thankfully I didn't follow their instructions, as I would've cut it far too short.


Here's a sound clip:

Yes I still have them, but I don't think they're removable. Besides, I'll probably put the stock exhaust back on whenever it comes time for a new car.

That's funny I went to get mine installed today, but my local shop didn't feel comfortable cutting it- so I'm off on Thursday to try again at a specialty shop. I hope it goes well I'm taking to the race track on Friday. I can't wait to hear it roaring down the straight away! I did add the RPI RAM air induction and blacked out the grill yesterday.
