Alright....so the drama is officially over. Long story...however, my exhaust is installed now. Not to bad. From the measurements Shift_Coupe gave the Magnaflows should have fit...and they did, however lets just say it really was a custom install. Pic's should be coming soon.

Ok, so here are a few shots...it sounds nice when you are hauling @**, but if you rev in park...it can sound a bit ricey. Overall, I am very happy, I can feel a difference in how it drives.

(bare with me...still working on the images)

Yep the Magnaflows...there was a fitment issue, wierd because it measured the same as Stillen's, however we made it work and I am happy(BTW the pipes, up to the tips are painted with a high temp black paint to help prevent rusting). I am trying to find my video camera to get some good footage...if all else I might try my digital camera for a movie.

Some how there was a descrepancy between the Stillen specs and the specs of the Magnaflow. The inlet pipe on the back of the Magnaflow was hitting the black suspension cross member. So instead of installing similar to the Stillen kit, we opted to angle the mufflers so as to hide them better, and thus had to cut the tips off and re weld them. You can kind of see it in one of the pictures.

I had my wife drive it passed me so I could see how it sounds driving by.

Along with the Fujita it sounds like a beast . I am still working on the video...found the miniDV camcorder, but not the power supply to charge the battery. Meh...details.

Thanks Adidas!

It isn't "true" dual as you would see with V-6 or V-8...but it does have dual mufflers. Technicalities...
