Added Kooks axel back mufflers to match my Kooks headers and catted X pipe installed last year… And because I wanted a little more sound, I decided rather than replace the Catted X pipe with and off road pipe for $600+, just cut them off and weld in open pipes for a third of that price… Sounds much better and not smelling the gas fumes that I was told I might from removing the cats...

Not at that point, but that was also just when they changed stuff, and it was in flux. It seems to have settled down, now.

Eta: I think DSOM (both gens) are the best color ever. I just was never in the right place and time to get one.

Me too. When I went out looking 2005, I thought I was going to get black or possibly the blue; then I saw a DSOM on a showroom floor and new I had to have one and, in 2006, found and bought one

Mine is four years old and still in great shape. It is ALWAYS on a tender when home, unless I'm washing it.

I have "trained" my 6 year old well. He's afraid to even walk in the garage, much less touch anything.
