I'm sure you know these add very little (if any) HP gain. The only real gain is going to come from losing about 60lbs from the stock mufflers.

Axle backs are primarily for sound, not much more.

I wish I was as lucky as some of you... I paid $105 to get my MRT 1.0 installed. Kansas City's auto shopes seem to be super high compared to others on here.

Enjoy your new exhst and post up a couple pictures!

I'm aware. I can feel a bit of a difference from takeoff thanks to the weight removal.

Exhaust ruined my car!!

I used to love my XM radio and my CD collection and the warmth of the car with the windows rolled up...I don't even hear as well as I used to all because of this darned exhaust. It sounds so good, I keep my windows rolled down in freezing weather, I don't listen to my CDs anymore or the XM radio (they detract from the sound) and sticking my ear out the window has caused me to become deaf in that ear. But, I sure do love the sound of my exhaust!!!

Yeah it sounds like there are a few of us within a 5 hr radius. A meet would be fun. So far the ppl I've personally met on the forum are great ppl.
