There pretty bad ***. Make sure you have a good shop put them on. I had my buddys put mine on and they gave it 110% but didnt have the right stuff to do the job; so i had to go to a shop anyway. Cost me 100 bucks for labor


I paid $300 bucks plus 110ish bucks for the frpp xpipe and 100 for labor puts me at about 500+ bucks; not bad since most axle back are around the same price.

I am going to be installing mine soon too. I am so excited.

I have a question for those that have install there MM. The instruction from pypes to install this muffler are pretty vague, how is the installation instructions from American Muscle?

I would say that's a pretty good right up. I'd just like to add that clearance for the passenger side hangers and brackets may cause some vibrations when the car is at operating temperature. This required me to get creative with a grinder and stock hanger brackets.

Also i'm pretty sure I installed the bent mid pipe with the bend outward and downward. He said outward and upward. I agree with him that adjustment of those short bent pieces is crucial. I'd try it his way first, my way may not be right.

They sound amazing, installed mine two weeks ago. They seemed pretty mellow at first but after about a week of breaking them in they got louder.

Well Had them installed the otherday at Tony's in glenburnie Maryland as advised. They are awesome, exactly what I was looking for. The guy at Tony's told me that they have installed several for customers and that the system is difficult to get straight but they would do their best. Well about 40min later out came my car and the tips looked perfect. I suppose if I were to messure it is possable that they are off a little but I think they are right. I then had to test it, so I went for a ride. Went to Washington, DC. and back (horrible roads) and NOT one rattle. Thanks to all for the advice.
