    It's a universal exhaust. You can just buy it and take it to the muffler show and they will do the rest.

    Yup... its universal...

    Just take it to a shop if you want it on... make sure they MAKE another flange and not just cut your original. This will save you trouble if you want to go to the dealership and use the stock exhaust, or if you are going to sell it, any aftermarket part, although you consider it an "upgrade", it WILL lower your resale value ;)

    Its not an exhaust, its just a muffler. All it does make noise and look pretty.

    if its big and loud save yourself the money and put a Folgers can at the end. IT'll give you the same annoying sound as a bigass muffler.

    I HEARD, no proof mind you, that taking it to a shop and getting it mounted should only cost like $30. Have the shop semi-mount it so you can hear what it sounds like before its permanent.

    my bad...what I meant by semi-mount was placing the muffler up the the exhaust so he can hear the sound of it before permanently placing the muffler on.

    if hes going for just the axle back,itll sound like he doesnt have the regular muffler on,just a little toned out.

    to me... thats just a part for ricers... this shouldn't be in the Performance section... maybe customization?

    TClife: what are you going for...exhaust-wise? sound, performance, prettiness?

    3A Racing makes great sounding mufflers. A good galant friend of mine in Michigan had one on his GTZ. Its not overpowering or buzzy at all. In fact if I had to relate it to any other exhaust you may be familiar with I'd compare it directly with Magnaflow.
