Gibson Exhaust

Got a Gibson Performance Axleback Exhaust installed on my car Sunday! I couldn't be happier with it. It was fairly easy to install and sounds awesome! What a difference. Couldn't beleive just how HUGE and heavy the stock exhaust was.

I will try to get a video sometime this week or at least by the weekend. It will get deeper? Yay! I bought this from someone on the forum and I'm really happy with it. But, I think we need to adjust the tips, they don't seem quite centered and one may protrude a little farther out than the other, but it's not really noticeable though unless your right up on it. Just have to figure out how to adjust without taking them off.

i think thats the only way to adjust is move it and have somebody look to see if its lined up. if it sticks out u might have to recut and put back on. mine are welded on with the quad tips

Yeah, I guess that's what we'll have to do. I think driver's side will need to be cut about a 1/2" to and inch. I will eventually get them welded, just couldn't wait to get them on! You have the Gibson as well?

Any exhaust sound video yet? Gibson axle-back exhaust is nr.1 on my list now, so any info greatly appreciated. How do you like it having on for almost a year?
