mr photoman: It's stock size 2.25" pipe. It doesn't drone very bad at all. My pipes stick out a little past the bumper which helps. It should sound like these because it's the same series muffler.

martosh79: It was not easy to install. The guy who did it had to do some tight bends back by the rear suspension to fit, but any experienced exhaust person could do this. The sound is worlds better than the stock muffler. It actually makes me love driving it all over again.
On mine they simply cut off a 1.5" section of the original pipe, rotated it then welded it back onto the magnaflow muffler and it worked very well. I left my resonator on so it is just 10-20% louder than stock. Just enough to sound good and no drone I used the magnaflow 14221. I have a spare for sale if you would be interested, I can get a shipping cost for Finland if you pm me your address.

martosh79, the stock exhaust is pretty good and is stainless steel. i think you would be happy with just the muffler. I also have a pair of brand new tips for it I could sell you. I paid $100 for the tips, I would let them go for $85 since they are still new in the box.
