i used the summit universal 2.5 x-pipe kit with single chamber mufflers and 1 5/8 longtube headers. i had completly stock exhaust before it ie:stock manifolds stock 1.75 pipe and crossover muffler. it made a hell of a difference in sound and performance. and getting all summit racing brand stuff really saved me alot headers-90$ xpipe kit-90$ mufflers-29.99 x 2
well i bought the turbo style mufflers first then these so and another 14.99 x2. i also spent 20$ more bux on extra piping and hangers.but let me tell you it did take "some" cutting and welding to get the universal x-pipe to fit. so even with the price of a the extra mufflers its still under 300 for a full exhaust system you cant beat that with a stick. hell i spent over 300 on my catback for my 4th gen alone.i also did it myself so there was no labor cost.

i say get the summit race one chamber mufflers sound great flow great and cheap

If you are looking for the Flowmaster sound without the price, check out Force Mufflers. Summit carries these, I've have several. They sound great and a built well, with fully welded case. You cant beat them for 32 bucks each.
