Doesnt sound that loud,  X pipe will give a deeper sound but not quieter.  I think it sounds good

Sounds pretty good to me.  Just get a tail pipe on her and call it good.

I see you have the same door panels and sterring column cover as me.

Sounds good are you planning on dumping it before the axle or putting tail pipes on it?

That IS funny:giggle:  It looks like he's looking for a place to hide!  Sounds good.  You inspired me to do a clip of my own.

if you're asking because the h pipe is hanging so low, than no, that wasnt it. these lers are center inlet/outlet, and the only way they would fit, is if i dropped the h pipe down.

here is another vid with the flowmasters. but im sure we all know what they sound like. this actually the 1st car ive owned with flowmasters on it. :flip:
