before i can do that, i have to get the sides. i wanted the matching fabulous rear but it has a square cut out for the exhaust. so.. in the mean time... it'll just be the sides...still saving up for it.

Man those exhausts are nice. I wonder what they would sound like on a 300. Looks like I mught be getting rid of the LSportline. Im getting tired of the whistle that the tips make. Im starting to feel like a ricer .Do they make them in catback too? CAn you buy the other section without the stock resonators?

no need to, i didn't even get to wipe the dirt and water spots down. i just wanted to take the angle shot, didn't even have time to clean it. in regards to the gaskets, it should be fine.

I noticed that the tips are pretty long, do you find yourself scraping much?

the tips might seem to extend far but it doesn't even exceed the bumper. if i remember correctly, the barrel sits at most 1" lower if not the same. i have never scrape it ever unless you're sitting low like junction, then there's a possibility

Longer tips are better anyways, keeps the exhaust gases away from discoloring your bumper and reduces the chance of fumes getting into your trunk vent. (not sure if thats a problem with the GS).

I was thinking about getting the carson tuned, but this is considerably cheaper and more available. From what I was told it will take a while to get a carson tuned exhaust and I'm not sure I want to wait that long. I also want to do headers and do a header to cat back section, eliminate all the cats and replace with 1 high flow cat., so I'd rather start out with a quiet exhaust casue its only going to get louder after that. I dont like the wistle you get from the L-tuned.

Hollywood, keep in mind that the Carson Tuned Exahsut is a full cat-back, Stainless steel exhaust. The Blitz is just the rear section only. That's why there's a huge price difference. Both are great exhaust and sound excellent.

Johnny, Anything related to exhaust gases (headers, y-pipe, rear section), you should replace the gasket when unbolting. Reason why is because once the gasket is torqued down, it pancakes and loses it shape. If you try to reuse it, it may not seal properly and you may have a small leak. It's best to go and purchase new gaskets IMO.

Or if they are the metal ones just heat it with a blow torch and reuse.

I did not know the blitz is rear section only.
