That would be great, just wondering if it would make sense for me to switch over to the X pipe.
I really like my 80's Borla style system. It has headers and sounds good at idle and wide open throttle with zero resonance.
The tips are not the best but I've even seen tips posted here that look identical to the B&B's. I haven't gotten them yet because I'd probably want to drop the exhaust before busting out welding equipment near the rear bumper paint. I think the tips were not cheap about $200. The X pipe is another $100 with shipping etc. Is there another option besides the borla mufflers?
Reason I'm asking is its not about dropping a bunch of $. It's about getting the most effective system where I also like the sound. For example B&B is alittle too loud for my liking. Corsa is alittle too buzzy for me etc. Flowmaster is too loud.
Stainless works system was supposed the be the cats meow when it came out but I have not heard alot of people switching over to it.
