Though, I haven't seen much exhaust welding going on at Joeys.
I'm sure he'd give a great referral though.

Alright, so today, I did this mod, went with 1.5 inches and it sounds a little louder than stock. I went to san Bruno mufflers, the guy charged me 90 bucks. Whoever said 70 was because he "knew" you. Anyway, I'm a tad satisfied, I expected a louder r a w r, but the best part about it is that it doesn't drone.

Just wait a day or two. I thought it didn't do much the first day, but it really comes alive after the weld settles. It sounds fantastic now for me. Yeah he told me 90 too, but it's still worth it!

It's only two guys working there. Just tell them 's2000 exhaust mod'. They seem to have done the mod a dozen times by now, lol. I went with 1.5". Some have said that 1 3/4" will be louder and better.

Has anyone done a before/after dyno of the mod to see if it has a negative or positive effect on HP?
