I actually like to look under cars with aftermarket exhausts. Mine is shiny and pretty and you can actually see it without having to bend down too much. If I had those pipes under my car I wouldn't be able to rest until they were gone.
However, I'm interested to hear a sound clip.

Id imagine these straight pipes would be like running open header, which is unbearable to me. I actually like the way my single exit and test pipe sound. It isnt all that loud, but straight pipes like these is too much.

I don't like the hacksaw sound it produces... plus it's sufficiently loud to get you banned during a track day and over the 105db sound limit of most competitions.
If you like it though just live with it.

i got straight pipes done at my neighborhood backwood shop for $80 mine didnt rust and i told him the degrees of the bends and everything, ill see if i can go snap some pics and post them up right now, but so far ive had them for 2 months, not one pull over, driven 5,000 miles (to california) been here a week, still no cops, had people including a baby ride in my car with no problems, driven by countless cops and no problem, i feel a MAJOR increase in power at low and high rpms, you can drive it to sound like a rolex cup rx8 or like a RB catback system haha it all depends, but about every time i shift i get the "fast and the furious" backfire flame out the tail pipe thing, quiet funny if you ask me but i did it for performance for money, so far its worked with no problems. if you want to do this, i recommend it at your own risk maybe im lucky *knock on wood*
