custom exhaust is affordable. you just buy a muffler and resonator and ask for the shop to do whatever size piping you want. youre not gonna get any huge power gains from exhaust anyway, youll prolly even lose some tq, haha, so you dont need an all out pre-fabbed system.....especially you lemon, who just wants it for the look.

Don't be cheap with exhaust parts.

You'll end up regretting it later.

after going through getting "rice pipe" then to several attempt to get 'better' exhaust than brand name cat-back......

id say, dont spend your money at all on exhaust unless
1. you have valid reason why your car should sound like you're going faster than you really are
2. have FI setup.

just my .02

Very true and a 2.5" exhaust is a lil too much! Ive had my Greddy Evo exhaust for 2 years with 2.5" exhaust and ive neva had any gains to be honest I think ive lost alot of power then when I had the stock muffler!!! I think im gonna go with a cutout just for nitrous and find a stock exhaust!!! If anyone wants a catback lemme know but its a little old might need a shop to check it though.

i hate the way our mufflers look, if i were to just replace the stock muffler with a stealth vibrant one...would it sound/feel like ****, or is it, if you replace the muffler, you replace the rest?
