I like that one!

As I've said in your exhaust threads before, I wanted my car loud and asked the muffler shop to run 3" all the way back. They said that they couldn't get 3" over the rear end, so it steps down to 2 1/2 there. With a big cam and headers, it certainly is loud! If I have my foot on the floor, and there's a brick wall on the other side of the sidewalk, it sounds like one of my headers broke free.

I love it, and it's exactly what I wanted. Even as a high school kid, I thought loud pipes were annoying on a daily driver - but that's why I don't commute with mine. It's a "fun" car.
