Default Hinson Headers Installed

Did the header install and completely satisfied. If you have not installed headers yet, you are missing out! Yes my tail pipe need some additional adjusting. :-)

Wish they'd release an X-pipe for the 09-13 cars...

I have a 2011 GS with a SLP exhaust. What I did temporarily is added a step-down from the X to the axle back that reduced the 3'' to 2.5". Most will say I defeated the purpose, but when I drove her, she felt more responsive. The other thing I noticed is I had a drone prior with the SLP's. In my case, the drone was eliminated.

I've heard of a few guys having issues with the X-pipe and axle back. Glad to hear you got your figured out.
