I have this setup on my car. Total cost was $260.00. The mufflers I used are Dynomax Race Bullet mufflers and I got a set of 4" stainless tips from Summit. The sound is awesome as I have gotten many compliments. I did this mod last summer and the sound just gets better every day.

In a new development,I actually received my order from Pypes yesterday, a full month beforeI expected it, so I'll be installing them next week and let y'all know how it went and how they sound.

Well, they're in, and the sound of them is, without question, incomparable. There ain't nuthin this side of a 5.0 that sounds like these Pypes SFM-66 mid-mufflers and certainly not any axleback on any S197 that I've ever heard. Extremely nice aggressive idle and launch. Loud under WOT, withNOT A TRACE of DRONE when cruising - at any RPM. Null, nado, zippo - no drone what-so-ever. The exhaust tone is not a"deep" booming sound at all, but a definite junkyard dog growl that turns to a pleasing snarl and then into a howl when you get it on.
A coupla caveats though. These things require patience to install.JAX Performance of Chantilly took 2 hours to put them in, because the tolerances are very, verytight. You want these installed in such a way that the mufflers do not touch the fiberglass fuel tankcovers. That is not easy to do, and getting three sixteenth of an inch clearance is about all you can hope for. Also, the Pypes factory sent the wrong clamps (too small) for thestainless steel exhaust tips (which appear too big) so they will have to go in later as soon as I straighten it out with them.
But right now, I'm not worried about any of that. The sound is just totally awesome and will swear to you now that I ain't ever going back to axlebacks..

just my two cents but i like the mufflers in the back and would nt having the mufflers in the middle cause more vibration to the car 's interior cab
