Personally I think you are wasting some good money. The over axle pipes are not needed as the factory pipes are good.
Have you ever taken out the factory pipes? I have the catback system, and I compared the pipes side by side. It is a difference between 4 bends and roughly 23 bends.

There was a discusion on here before about the pipes and there was a difference but not enough to cause a noticable performance loss. No I have not removed mine to compare though.

Yeah, I remember that discussion as well--less bends, to me, equals more performance. Even though it's not noticeable, I'd have to say the 304 aircraft quality aluminum is worth it.

May I ask how I helped you? Are you getting the complete system or just the stingers?
I was looking for Borla A/Bs, but all were at the high 500s. You helped me out with the site. for that I say thanks again.

I agree with you. Less bends=more flow. At least in my simple mind.

I paid $635 on eBay.
