Anyone have suggestions for a midpipe to compliment the stingers? I see lots of people on here with O/R H's but a buddy of mine says they sound pretty nasty(bad) in the higher rpm range with the H and I should go for the O/R X. I'm in FL so emissions are not a issue.

better yet get the steedas they are cheaper then borlas , same muffler basically but a tad more aressive and they also have 4 inch tips.

I agree that it is, but look at the prices of everything else. Headlight splitters are like $80 UNPAINTED, a plug n play sequential harness can go for $110-140. I know you can find great deals on anything if you are willing to buy it used but I would prefer getting a new set so 450-500 isnt that bad. Especially considering the price of other axelbacks like the corsas.

To answer your question, yes!! Still a high price for mufflers tombstang. I just don't like being a sucker for the marketing machine for those that understand business. I guess I have been around a while and sort of old school. The prices will evenually come down for new but there are great deals here and there for used.
