What's the cost on that, approximately?

For those who are curious, they weigh 21lbs. each for a total of 42lbs.

The Magnaflow muffler deletes in box shipped weigh 22lbs..

Without packing and box, you are looking at about a 22lbs. weight savings. The nice thing about this is when you begin adding control arms, relocation brackets and rear girdle/axle tube braces, you are probably a little ahead of the weight game.

I just put a flowmaster hushpower axleback on mine. weighed both. stock weighed 42. flowmasters were 24.

Hey, sorry to post the foto again...I have the same dent on my drivers side,
also..this is a pic of factory pipes, correct?
Took it in, they threw it on the lift, and said they would get a new one
"when the part showed up on the computer"

Really....

Minus the indentions.

SSW appears to be a fluted design.

You can pre-order them now. They are on a P/O and we should have them here in a few business days!

I would like to know what kind of in the car drone you get with either of these setups. 2000 rpm cruise. Will it drive you nuts on a long trip?
Thanks

I've experienced none of that 2000 rpm drone with the Hushpowers that you use to get with the old 2 chamber flowmasters.

SCT handheld with their canned tune. Nothing special. Pulled it off the shelf and plugged it in.

Yes factory. The indentations are there on all cars. That is due to the machines used to hold them in manufacturing. Not a big deal TBH. Replacing will not help in any way. If you are really bothered by it, replace it with a cat-back of your choice.

I can't believe those things retail for $600.00 bucks. Did you find them for less???

I paid just over $400 which is still too much IMO. $200-$250 is fair but parts for these cars aren't cheap atm. Maybe a different story in another year.

Thanks...was getting ready to call dealer back and ask 'what's with the wait'.
