Default Stinger Install at 21MC (Dial Up Beware)

In case you are interested in the process:

Onto the lift:


Up she goes:


Loosening the old exhaust:


Prying off the old exhaust:


Fresh from the box (they blew these out with shop air to make sure they were clean):


The old stock mufflers and their bad paint job (they really looked bad next to the T-304 stainless Borlas):


Prepped and ready to go on:


The new Borla one-tip (notice that they left on the plastic during installation to protect the tips):


Getting it in place:


Getting it straight (they said it was straight when I SAID it was straight. Then they tack welded the clamps to keep it straight):


And finally, they fired it up (schweet):


Thanks again to John Page, Mike, and the staff at 21MC!!!!

(Look in the General Discussion section...I will post some pics from the shop and the store there)

Welcome to the "Club of Rumble". 2-tip or 4-tip, you simply can't buy a better-sounding exhaust at any price.

Enjoy! :cheers:

I have only been on the forum for a year, but it is my perception that we don't normally quote prices. Just call or e-mail John Page (see the 21MC box to the left) and I'm sure he would be glad to tell you his going price.

I'll just say I was happy with it!
