ghl installed
just got my ghl exhaust installed sounds nice, but my borlas in my c5 sound loader. I've read that there are two types of ghl, the 2 and 4 tips. But I read somewhere that there are different lengths too. Flushed to body and the ones that stick out. Is one last year model or what?

Just ordered mine today. When they first came out for the C6 they stuck out about 1.5 inches from the rear fascia. They now make them with shorter tips and only stick out slightly. Not sure if you can still get the longer version or not. When I ordered mine I specified I wanted the shorter tips. What tips do you have. It sounds like your not real happy with them. I think their supposed to be slightly quieter than the Borlas. Post your thoughts on sound, interior noise, look, etc. Seems to be a lot of forum members are considering GHL's right now.

[QUOTE=BIG Dave]180*? Looks to me like each pipe has a pair of 90* twists, one before the muffler and one after...
My bad, I was just responding to a previous reply and confused 180 degree with 90 degree.

I like that the exhaust comes out alittle, the tips look real sharp , interior sound is not bad at all. very little drone. I guess it will become a little loader after i burn the baffle.
