Default JBA Headers installed...

Yeah I got my JBA headers installed 3 days ago,also moved stock cats under drive shaft tunnel and added high flow single tip mufflers...A slight drone at 1500rpm nothing too bad though...Got everything installed at Warner's muffler shop in Escondido Ca...$1600 out the door for everything including labor,and he even swapped out the Magnaflows he originally put on it cause I told him it was too loud and DRONEY...The owner's name is Jim,really cool guy and has real knowledge when it comes to exhausts...I'll posts some pics this weekend!

Do you mean they added an x-pipe with high flow cats, or actually moved the stock cats under the car??
