Default BEST SIDE PIPES

What are the best side pipes out there?

Should I go with chrome or black?

I have heard a lot of ugly stories about chrome discoloration, and I plain to drive mine hard.:steering: :auto:

What do you guys think?

Don't buy the headman side mount exhaust i you expect any performance!
They are small, short and very unequal length, then they feed to a very restrictive side exhaust muffler.
