[QUOTE="Mojo88, post: 15625823, member: 184279"] Yeah well, that's the thing. It [B]IS[/B] boosted and making 625rwhp, so that's ~700 at the crank, which would seem to mandate a restriction-free exhaust. Plus the fact that it's only 2.5" pipe to begin with. I'm thinking there's got to be some restrictions there with those pipes as they are. Anyway, I ordered a set of over-the-axle stainless 'Pypes' 2.5" mandrel bent from LMR. I have a lift and used to own a couple of service stations back in the old days, so I've done lots of exhaust work. I'll be curious to see if I can get the 'Pypes' to fit in place without having to dimple or bend them. I'll post here with my results on installation, and maybe some pics. I plan on adding two resonators as well. Thanks all! :) [/QUOTE]
