Thanks Ben, No, I didn't test drive it. I took the car off he insurance until spring. That pleasure is going to have to wait.

Don, I bet you like that mod a lot. Cool workmanship from your buddy also, nice team work pays off at the end.
Fred, Thanks for the kind words. I love the burble that has developed. I had my phone leaning against an upside down waste basket about 6-8 feet from the exhaust and you can see the phone being moved by the exhaust near the end of the video. The pipes are straight 1.75" pipes following the sames bends as the oem pipes (minus the cats). The weight savings is 6 pounds per pipe. I couldn't be happier (except if I were driving it with the top down)

If anyone would like a set of these please contact Buck, his e-mail is amgreenway@gmail.com. Tell him you learned about his pipes on this forum and from Don. I do not know what he will charge for a set, that is between you and him. But I can only say the workmanship is excellant and I am one happy customer.

Wow that's a nice offer from your mate there. I bet he does those at a reasonable cost also... if compared to other vendors who seems to be sky rocketing the prices lately. Good to have new options (he should join the forum and show-off his work).

Does sound amazing, the burbling part is the best imo. Please update this thread when you have the box on the road. (2 months Don, be patient!!!)
