Default New exhaust

I finally got my new 2 1/2" exhaust and Power Stix chambered mufflers on my car today. The sound is unbelievably good. The bigger pipe absolutely lets the motor breathe much better and the car is running and sounding like a raped ape.

If anyone is considering chambered exhaust/mufflers, I highly recommend it.

And how is it you know what a "raped ape" sounds like?

I'd rather not say. I'll just say that what happens at the zoo stays at the zoo.

Get a room. On the Ferrari forum we say "runs like a sexualy violated semian" cause we got class and our crimes are white collar .
How about pictures or a video?
