"The size difference between stock and aftermarket is huge, huh? That's what gives you the power increase that makes you feel like you are using 109 octane or something along those lines. My 2.5 feels a lot faster with my aftermarket headers and exhaust on it. I have a little more power and its a lot louder. The combo is simply amazing with the top down, especially when you go under a freeway overpass!"


All the more...I cannot wait to get these on and get going! I did have moments when I recalled you saying that I could have had it installed by a local muffler shop...especially when the bolts broke (LOL)

I have a 2.5 too (a 1999 Tip). I bought it last fall - Black with rust/red interior and hardtop. Since then, especially after reading many of the posts on the forum, I have been inspired (though I keep holding myself back) to add faux burlwood interior dash, staggered 18" BSA rims with Falken tires, replaced my discolored headlight assemblies (but still maintained the amber--haven't crossed over to the other side yet...though maybe next year), replaced a cracked amber sidelamp, front and rear anodized strut braces from one of our sponsors (****************************************), headers, and soon to be put on cross-drilled and slotted Zimmerman rotors....etc...too much to do!
