So my prts should be here fairly soon. Picking them up from a member here. Only issue is that they come with speedway tips. Can I get some pictures of them on if car? Is there a way to switch out tips to quad tips??

I would guess a shop could weld on some quad tips - if you can find just the tips for sale (a big if) and if you add on the additional pipe on each side for the extra tip.

Frankly, you would be better off selling these and finding a used set of quad tips. PRT's sound great. I had them on my previous C5.

I have PRT's with quad oval tips. The sound is sweet, however I think the speedway tips look a tad on the silly side. If you are going to change tips, dual 4" may look good. I do not know how you would do a quad tip setup without a ton of work.

What? The speedway tips look wayyy better then the quad tips. Way to much going on in the rear with those things. The Speedways contours to the rear body much better then four tips. I guarantee you won't get as many comments if any with 4 tips vs the Speedways.
