Thanks Steve! Yeah like Jon said, i really don't know. They got under there with us to get it perfect! You could call them though and see. Ken'z Muffler in Oxnard, CA. Mention Jon and I (Michael).

jon3501447's exhaust sounds great! I

I'd definitely do something like this to my as it's relatively inexpensive compared to the aftermarket single exhausts.

I really like 09S2K's "footwork" setup as well.

I want to say I gained 20rwhp!........ in reality....maybe 1rwhp. lol.... I honestly feel a TAD more torque from 3500-4500, but it's almost negligible. The real gain here is the distinct sound and inexpensive wait loss.

If you have a boosted ride, I'm pretty sure you'll feel much more of a hp gain.

I think I gained more power than you Jon because I have a bigger tip!!!

In all seriousness, I don't think I noticed anything. My whole point in this setup was sound. And I accomplished that! Weight savings and looks were nice extra. And maybe veryalightku increased flow.

I believe a guy did a before and after dyno run and he showed like a 3 hp gain. I don't think that is something could really be felt.

Which goes to show how good the stock exhaust really flows! Only a 3 hp difference between stock and a straight pipe.
