Alright,will the borlas give me that deep rumble I'm looking for? I had a shop quote me $240 installed and summit racing has them for 99 a piece and a magnaflow x pipe for 89. Are those decent prices? I personally can't find better. Also does the outlets on the mufflers make a difference as far as their location?

Center/Center would be better for flow, but it doesn't matter too much. As long as its all the same size.

All the prices sound right except the X pipe, screw that, buy the more affordable stainless steel X pipe on Ebay.

Any sound difference between the two? Or is it not noticeable?
Thanks for the eBay link, I may end up just going with that one off your recommendation. Alot less too if there is no difference.

No difference in the various x pipe. They will all mostly sound about the same.

Correct. They all work the same, they only quiet down low rpm just barely. But the stronger low end is very well worth it.

Hey barrett! good seeing your gonna finally get an exhaust on it. I went to a local midas muffler shop. I only got my SI/DO custom piping, with tips all to be around $300 bucks. Im sure it wouldnt be too much more for your true duals. They told me to just buy my muffler and bring it in and they would put it on so you can save some money there. Just my 2 cents

Ha knew someone would take it that way, but actually my girlfriend did pay for them and she came over to see them [the mufflers]. And yeah I let her know I appreciated her. Now get your mind outta the gutter lol.

Hey man, yeah I'm pretty excited about it thats for sure! I already got the x pipe and mufflers bought so ill be going the same route ou did as far as finding an installer. I think Sooner muffler gave me a quote of $240 and they'd put on tips too. So may call them back when the x pipe gets here. It shipped out today.
