It's goin to the exhaust shop tommorow so I want opinions on pipe size and where the tips should come out the back. Will it be too loud with windows down if they exit behind the rear tire? Should they go staight out the back? I think I'm going with a muffler that is like a hybrid of a muffler and a glass pack called a tuff turbo. Anybody heard of it. It's got a great sound at idle without all the rappity wrap of a glass pack at RPM. You should hear it now. The neighbors are prolly POed at me tonight.  Thanks in advance for the advice | | |
