haha, none actually. my buddy was supposed to get some from his friend and give to me, but he kept putting it off, and i got sick of waiting. so its just ran the 2.5'' exhaust tubing right out that back and put a slight angle cut on it. it actually looks pretty good. good enough that i think ill keep it that way untill it rusts up and starts to look bad, then i'll buy tips. i'll try to get a couple pictures of the tips if i remember tomorow.

looks good i got flows on mine but the only reason i got them was $100 for a used pair and someone had them on there car for less than 2 weeks. But i gotta get some cherry bombs soon because i never wanted flowmasters to start with.

Can you post up a video or sound clip? of the exhaust system

i can try to figure out how to put one up. ive never done that before, i think my camera will do that, but i gotta figure it out. i put the march underdrive pulleys one today, and got rid of that air pump. between the exhaust and pulleys, i highly recomend doing that to these cars. its helped out so much. plus i can already tell im getitng way better MPG. ill try to get that sound clip up though.

Cherry Bombs sound good, thats what I run.  They are really quite inside, but loud outside the car.  And no annoying resonance

thats sorta the way my car is now. its good and bad, its nice 'cus its not annoying you, u can talk to the person sitting next to you, and all that. but its kinda sad sometimes, cus everyone else can hear how loud and sweet sounding car is, but me.
