Default bargain exahust any good??



what do you guys think about this set up? I am pretty broke right now after getting the intake/tuner,saving up for gears/install and looking for a value in an exaust set ups..

already ordered a set of race pipe muffler deletes lol (pretty sure they'll sound good,straight through design,though may be raspy it's better then stock imo)




might also go with shorty headers to complete the package..

Bargain exhaust no good for one add on at a time. All together on? maybe. Save up the cash for your favorite setup. Headers are a pain to install and pypes quality is always in question.

Quality and craftsmanship with Pypes? You're kidding right? Better research you products a little more.

wow..
first the good news.

The race pipe muffler deletes sound pretty bad *** for the price!
loud rumble during part throttle acceleration/WOT and nearly stock sounding
when idling.

now the BAD..
um..yeah.
The driver side pipe does NOT align up correctly and only the first hanger bracket
was used while the one nearest the bumper was not installed.

On the passanger side,NO hanger brackets were used because of fubared design on the
hanger (too long on the side closests to the tip) and I had to use a zip tie
on one of that hanger (attached to the frame) to keep it from bouncing too much.

Overall,the sound is great but the fittment is HORRIBLE..but for $189 or whatever I really
can't complain too much.They really do sound awesome!~
