just gone finished installing mine yesterday. Install was easy but it took me about 2 hours to get all the tips aligned up perfect. Car sounds mean like it should. I do have a small pop on decel maybe an x-pipe will fix that. Overall very happy with the setup and beating that corvette tax.

Do you think it would it be pretty easy to add the x-pipe afterwards? Or is that a whole nother' can of worms?

im looking at something like the bassani xpipe where you cut off the pipes and they slide over. The hardest part of any of these exhaust jobs is getting the car jacked high enough to fit comfortable underneath. My new years resolution should have been to make friends with someone with a lift

You guys that don't have this system and are looking to buy it will be VERY happy with the sound and performance ! The exhaust sound from this system is just AWESOME ! Not to mention the tips are identical to the Corsa's.
