I bought the stock one from Moss a year or so ago. the center piece was all wrong and had to go in upside down and backwards to match the connecting pipes. couple weeks ago I had that piece cut out and replaced with straight pipe.

so...whomever you buy it from inform them that you'll be paying someone to put it in and if the pieces do not fit right (reciting the above), you'll be expecting to have them pay for modifying their parts to fit.

("just send it back" doesn't work well when your old system is all ripped out and now you can't drive it because their replacement system is messed up.)

Local muffler shop, straight pipe (well slightly bent) to a glasspack in the rear. Sounds great, under $100.

agree. Have a 2" back to a cherry bomb. Awesome.

I have an Ansa system currently, and it sounds pretty good. I had run a stock system for years, and with the resonator removed, I think it had a pretty good sound.

Is it louder when you remove the resonator and do a straight pipe?

In my case No. The sound is smaller on cruise but appropriately nzsty on hard acceleration.

I di not like loud

I had a "stock" moss system, had to put the center piece upside down and backwards to make it fit.

Clearance was a problem. A REAK problem (like 1" clearance)

use the rear section with the downpipe you already have, with rear sectin. Muflfer shop cab bridge the two.

Yeah, I know. Too much $% for what seems simple. Yup. they have a mortgage to pay as well.

If you plan on keeping the car for any length of time, I'd advise buying a stainless system regardless of the make or who you buy it from. The length of time they last will out weigh the extra initial cost. JMHO. PJ
