That's a good price! I would cost $800 here (no lie) for non-stainless. Just the pipes, muffler and tips. Hell, it cost me $330 just for a muffler and a tip. They didn't even have to run any different pipes.

Cereal? Wow. He gave me a bunch of options. $700 to chop it off before the cats, dual high flow cats, dual magnaflow mufflers stainless welded plus tips. Then ^ that option. Then a glasspack to duals for about $400 but he said they were poppy at high rpm. so I think he said its $50 a tip so I might just go without for a bit and buy them later. The $50 tips were just miter cut single wall. I want rolled edge flat cut out the side behind the tires.

Oh yeah, stainless rolled are the way to go. Single wall ones rust really fast and look 10 times cheaper.

Sound like a sweet exit! Always cool to see more unique exhaust exit than just straight back or on an angle.

Installed new PVS for the second time. I broke one of the ports on the first attempt. Bypassed the thermac air temp sensor to keep it open instead of closed. With new PVS the EFE actually works as designed. Went for a test drive to burn off the spilled antifreeze.
