Any of those might be good bargains, but brand new long tubes for $450 sounds more like a "steal", as in hot, depending on what brand. You'd need to be more specific.

But my best advice to you is to make one more click on the "CapsLok" key. People feel as though you're yelling at them when it's all CAPS.

Welcome to the Forum!

Welcome and congrats on the car!! Someone with good exhaust advice will stop by shortly, I'm sure. My only advice to you would be, and please no offense, but hit the caps lock button!

Enjoy your new ride!!!!

The X pipe supposedly flows better then the H pipe. Also if your car has that neutral "jingle", the X pipe will solve that problem, at least it did on mine.
