But for the price and the sound, worth it in my book. There are better out these, but my next one will be dual cherry bomb'd straight pipe exhaust. b

Drove it on a 200 mile run & never got tired of the note. Sounded very good. Made the stock engine sound like it had MORE! and not like a tractor (inside joke with JP in mind) .....b

I got the double because it looks cool. They are nicely constructed and should last well. Supposedly, they have better flow, you might pick up a horse or two. Attached image(s)

There prices are very good as well. They are doing my exhaust next week. I will post pictures when it's done. Also how much they charged. http://www.rjcustompiping.com/

"...And it has a front trunk too." Group: Members Posts: 6,588 Joined: 15-February 04 From: Low Desert, CA./ Hills of N.J. Member No.: 1,658 Region Association: None	I've had my Anza sence 1984, they wrap the muffler's in aluminum to repel rust. There is a little on the pipes but not bad no holes and hasn't fallen off yet. Sounds great to me.
