You think about cutting into the bumper and making a little hole like Vettes?

The spare tire well drops down to far. That is as high up into the bumper as you can get. We had discussed that when we started the project.

How does it sound with just the magnaflow and no lers?
It's Gumby's fault.

Its only loud when you get on it hard. But when you are at crusing speed you only get a low tone rumble out of it. And that magnaflow is a ler.

Lets put it this way I passed a honda civic all riced out and the guy about snapped his neck trying to see what it was that passed him.

Nice:D

What size pipe is that? I'm thinking about having something like that done to my 95 V6 if I have some extra cash at the end of the year. I'd probably go with 2" or 2.25" pipe though. Looks like you used 2.5" pipe. To big for a 3.8 ;)

Yes, that is 2.5 in pipe. Your best bet would be 2.25 for the 3.8 anything bigger it will rob you of power.
