i would get some sort of turndowns..

i have them so i dont have tail pipes running around by my tires and gas tank

can get bigger tires without worry where pipes are.

on the back of my mufflers 1 our is 45 degree dumps and the other side has a removable plate so it goes straight through the mufflers with no baffles..

I hate em! My car came with em cause the guy I bought em from was too lazy to put real tailpipes on it.. unless you want to breathe deadly carbon monoxide in and its not a drag car, I say hell no to that idea!! No matter how good you insulate the car it seeps in and you dont want to be breathing that.

i dont drive it daily and the motor is fully built so it doesnt bother me

fumes dominate the smell anyways.... and the tops down so its never "in" the car anyways

haha

Much better sound, tail pipes prety much kill alot of sound. I have tailpipes right now, and 1 came off at the end of the muffler and i loved how it sounded, so i'm gona ditch the tail pipes and dump them with a turn down pipe. Really people only dislike them is because of the fumes that come up in the cabin.
