Default Magnaflow X-Pipe Received!

Man, this is of top notch quality! Very good welds and nice thick flanges. As I have stated earlier, this will replace my Borla XR-1 Resonator (H-Pipe) section, thus NO MUFFLERS, BABY :D! It should be very sweet sounding. This is a before (with Borla XR-1 Resonator Section) sound.
Here are two pis of the Magnaflow X-Pipe:

Pic Two
I'll follow up with an after vid :cool: :cheers:
