Default Got my PRT's installed.

UPS delivered them at 11:30 this morning and I had them installed by 1PM. I had intended to get the elliptical tips but ended up with the round. After looking at them, I decided that I like them better since few C5's around here have round tips. The guy that installed them did a great job and spent a lot of extra time aligning the tips. I highly recommend him to anyone in this area.

I haven't had a chance to open it up yet but it sounds great during normal acceleration. The idle definitely has more authority. It doesn't really sound any different inside at cruise speed. I hear a fair amount of popping during deceleration and shifting. Some may not like that. I do.

My early assessment - PRT's rock! Thanks to Richard at Exit-28 for making this such a good deal that I couldn't pass it up. :D

By the way, the picture in my sig is my old exhaust that had elliptical tips. I'll be changing it soon. Didn't want anyone to get confused about how they look.
