Thanks fellas. What's even better than the way it sounds and looks? It only cost me $350! Add in the fact I can probably recoup $80-100 bucks for the stock muffler and that's one helluva deal.

Drove it for 3 hrs and got the SES light.
p2240 and p2237 both O2 sensor related :/ GD vacuum leak.
Bought a code scanner and a oil filter housing gasket today. Buying some vacuum stuff tomorrow, along with new belts and a new pulley
You have any videos up? If not, you should take some
Another member installed this exhaust. I'd like to hear it with the second resonator removed like you did though. Budget exhaust, this is what I would do. I have access to a welder and am pretty decent at it so labor for be Free.

VERY nice. But possibly a tad too loud for the fiancee... lol. I'm gonna see how everything sounds on mine (got it installed today!) once it's broken in for a couple weeks and I've replaced the urethane motor/trans mounts that came with the car with M3-spec rubber mounts. Right now it's a little difficult to distinguish cabin noise from exhaust note, but it definitely sounds different and good.![]()
