Yeah for an exhaust that looks like and sounds like the $250 stillen axel back. I've fought against custom anything on a car for awhile because you never know whats going to happen, but in this case I think its the best choice.

well...i have...http://store.summitracing.com/...6+115i would recommend...http://store.summitracing.com/...0+115

mine hangs kinda low, and this one will be less visible (they are the same muffler with different onlet/outlet)

my little brother just put the second one on his matrix yesterday. its amazing how these mufflers can go from sounding perfect on our Vs and horrible on his matrix (it pops alot)

oh and this is a little of topic but somebody buy this...http://bend.craigslist.org/cto/853823508.html

the BRE one is not designed for flow, it is just a mass produced custom cat-back (i think, correct me if im wrong) so if you had a custom one mad i would think you gains would be almost the same.

Did you get it from Performance Peddler? They often take huge discounts off listed prices on their website if you call and ask.
