Default Manga Flow exhaust installed

Well I went to my local exhaust shop and got a Magna Flow muffler installed. So far I can feel a little difference in acceleration and going up hills. There is a little bit of a drone w/ the top up and the radio off but no that bad. The shop continued with the mandrel bends going to the muffler. My total price was $130 for the muffler and mandrel bent pipe and labor.

Here are some pics.

I would not go with a flow master on anything but a V8.

It does have a little growl to it and it is fairly quiet when it is idling. But when you really push the "go fast" pedal down it does get a little bit of a raspy sound but not too bad. I have had magna flow mufflers on previous vehicles and loved the sound.

Those lights look like they would get ripped off the first off road trip.
