Default Don't know what exhaust I have??

Yo guys, I never really asked this question before, but here goes.

When I bought my car like 8 months ago, the guy said he bought it with the exhaust already on there. He claimed that it had a catted X, which it does, and flowmasters, which I think it does. I love the way the car sounds, it's very deepand muscular. I have no problem with the sound.I may be getting bigger tips though, maybe 3.5" angle sliced tips. Mine right now are too small for my taste.I have no clue as to what brand the X pipe is, or if my mufflers are really from flowmaster. How can I find out? I know myx pipe is not a BBK, so that eliminates one brand. If I take some pics, can you guys figure it out?Like is there a special spot I can look for, like a seal, orengraving?I can bring it into my autoshop tomorrow at school, and put it on a lift and snap some pics. Thanks guys.

Oh, and if the tips are welded onto the pipe, can I take an acetyline (sp?) torch to it and bolt on a set of bigger tips? If not, any other cutting methods you'd suggest?

Flowmasters ususally say flowmaster on the tips, but not always. The muffler will have flowmaster on it - your X pipe should have something on it too.

best bet is to jack that thing up and look around...my flowmasters only say flowmasters on the mufflers btw, not on the tips.

My UPR doesn't have an emblem on it either but you can't miss the Flowmaster logo on the mufflers. Get the car up and check it out.
