Default looking to change it up..

when i bought my 1.5 EG a few years back, the owner had put on a 2.25" borla exhast system.. since then ive added a turbo.. and a few things here and there...

this is what i was working with.




its half way decent.. not as ghetto as a flowmaster.. lol

so i was thinking.. why not bling it out alittle.. i snagged up one of these.




so off came the borla.. and on went the ES..







it was surprisingly quieter.. alot.. damn near stock..

so what do you guys think? or ?

personally I would have extended the tip just a little further back so you don't get exhaust riding up your bumper... I've seen that and its not pretty.

But other then that... Bangin y0
