I got my new exhaust in! It's a Cherry Bomb Extreme muffler with 3" inlet and dual 2.25" outlets. I bent the pipes myself, and I have to say they look pretty darn sexy!

You got it, chops!

But just to let you know, this system is not for the faint of heart. I think I pooped just a little, when I first started it up! :eek:

I may have to install a glasspack inline, just to knock it down a bit.

It's just heavy guage exhaust pipe, bent on the mandrel bender at the shop. As far as seeing a lot of welds...I could never figure out how to make several bends on one pipe and have it come to the right spot! So I bent several small pieces and welded 'em up.

And as far as clearance goes, the picture is decieving- there is actually plenty of room around the shocks.

About half an hour ago, when you looked out your window to question that rumbling sound...that was me! :lol:

Seriously though, I'll see what I can do about a vid.

And I got some new tips now- stainless steel oval ones. They're gonna look sweet! I just can't put them on until I repaint it(3 more weeks to finish the body, spray, and detail it!).
