i have it. the tips are uneven and not perfectly circular if you look at the top view picture.



here is an actual picture of mine.



buy it from me used for a slightly cheaper price (if you're local) and have the tips adjusted at an exhaust shop.

i love the sound. it bolts right on, but the tips will be crooked. the passenger points and and the driver points up.

it's a tad louder than stock. higher pitched, similar to hks i guess. not annoying at all. not deep. no done.

if i can get a good deal on shipping, then i'd consider it. where in norcal are you?

Hmm, not sure if I can find a good enough deal on shipping and I don't wanna take the hit on regular shipping charges. Best bet would be to buy it new I guess.

negative on the pictures. sound is subjective. what sounds good to me may not sound good to someone else. but yes, i liked the sound.

no where near as loud. it's just a tad bit louder than stock. noticeably louder, but nothing to get pulled over for.

and i would not compare the sound to that clip. it's hard to explain in words. just something you gotta hear. unlike any other exhaust i've heard before, so it's hard to relate it to another exhaust.

assuming the one you receive is like the one in the stock picture and the one i received, then you will not be happy with its fitment without some sort of modification. i guess you can try to heat it up and bend the tips or take it to a shop and have them adjust the tips (cut them off and weld them back on).
