RE: side exhuast kit for us!!!
umm again, that needs to be painted,
My pypes were 429 shipped, with everything....so you add 200 +80 for the rear bumper and side skirts and ur still at 709.....its not worth another grand
Its gonna be terrible sounding IMO.....the magnapacks are gonna be huge droners, and also, this exhaust is right by ur window, which makes it 10x louder than it should be. DONT GET THEM.

another thing with that kit is the tips are very tight in the hole that they provide in the sideskirts
and when you go over something and the underside scrapes, it'll pull on the system and push it into the sideskirt, and the tip will melt the paint....saw it happen

RE: side exhuast kit for us!!!
Well that just sucks if it happens with the sixxer kit. I'm trying to figure out how much work it would be to weld up my own kit and use the GT side skirts along with making my own custom side pipes to work with those, with some slight modifications. I'll try to measure it out tommorow and see what I can come up with I guess.

I'm getting the BBR side exh. rockers and making my own muffler and exh. system this way I can controlthe baffeling and insulation to tune the sound how I want it and make the muffler thinner for clearance. It will be modeled after a BBR exh. system. I'll take pics thru the process. Picking the rockers up today and making the end pipe collectors next week, hope to have the system done in 2 to 3 weeks . I'll keep you informed.

Picked up my exh. rockers from Kaenen in Melbourne FL. for 400.00 . They also have a set that screws on for 325. I think I can do the rest myself for less than 300. The quality of this glass work is great they handle all the Elenore parts and I think they look better than cervini.
