<SPAN class=normalTextSmall>my experience with side exit is that it actually restricts airflow causing you to lose HP</SPAN></P>


<SPAN class=normalTextSmall>but they do look cool</SPAN></P>

<SPAN class=normalTextSmall>Yeah, the 180 degree bend to have the exhaust exit on the sides restricts flow. They make look nice, but they are not very functional as a high performance part....</SPAN>

<SPAN class=normalTextSmall>I have found a kit that actually doesn't cost horespower but you don't gain as much as regular exhaust only 5 hp at the wheels gained.
i think kit is only 549.00 right now (includes side skirts for 94-98 or 99-new)
also they sell the 6cyl adapter

if i kind find the link ill post it later...

check the rousch site 4 theyre exhaust.</SPAN>

I bought my car with side exit exhaust and it sure looks kool. But good luck trying to get another muffers. I went to four different shop so that they could insall 40 series flowmasters. And no one wanted to because they did not know how. One guy tryed to charge me 700 dollas. I said the hell with that, and so I took my car from Kansas to New Mexico just to get my ehaust done. I now know were to go. And he did a very good job. I feels alot different then that kit that it came with. Plus I had skirts already. And they would not sell me just the mufflers. Yup, side exit looks really good,and sounds good with 40 series flowermasters. In my 95 gt Conv. with roll bar.

Get the 3 chamber Flowmasters since 2 chambers won't sound right on the 4 cylinder.

I just read that the CDC side exhaust is made of Cast Aluminum and not Stainless Steel. What do you guys think of that? Is that important?
