Did you paint them black? I was thinking earlier that painting everything black would be interesting, possibly with the tips left unpainted.

Ill try to get a video by the end of the week. Going back to the track thursday, maybe ill get one there too. Its actually pretty tame sounding compared to the non npp set up. Just what my wife and HOA wanted.

Can someone enlighten me, and tell me if a missed an off the shelf quiet 3" non chambered axle back option? I met my needs and am correcting my failed vision. Everything will be ok, and i can hopefully gain acceptance from EVERYBODY.

Borla 60608 is the key. I have one in the garage for this winter. I don’t know much about catbacks

They are all somewhat loud at cold start. But you also have a garage for that so it helps. AWE has an non NPP axel back Touring Edition for around $650 and if you want a couple of videos PM me and I will send them your way.

Thanks for ALL opinions. Im sure the placement, angle and or distance of the tips will still be hated on. Im good with it now. Im cammed at 500 wheel, had to quiet it without sacrificing power.

i feel if the tips were straight and flush with diffuser would be better look.

i would color match the rear diffuser and paint exhaust tips gloss black.
