I put a K&N Hot Air Intake on at the same time I did this exhaust and yes I noticed a difference.
And yes it would be a straight bolt in for you.

This exhaust from the dealer is something like over $900!!!!!
THE TIPS ALONE ARE $105 FROM THE DEALER!!!!
This is a F'ing STEAL!!!!
And I am very insulted by that GOD DAMN LOWBALL OFFER!!!!
This shipping alone would have to be near $70-90 to get that to florida...that would mean only 120-130 for the exhaust...
YOU CAN'T GET A MUFFLER SHOP TO BUILD YOU AN EXHAUST FOR THAT LOW!!!!!

Sorry, but what can you do, it is a capitalistic society. Are you moving up to the WMS?

Best rant this week. I can literally hear the steam blowing out of your ears up here in Walnut Creek........

.....and you thought an authentic JCW exhaust would hold it's value.........hell, I got $450.00 for a two year old Magnaflow....

Someone call Xalfa and Chows so they can adjust their Unofffical JCW Bluebook Estimators. Better, yet, tomorrow I'm gonna start a thread showing how a Maggotflow with a rattling resonator held it's value over a genuine pedigreed JCW quick-fit cat-back supreme.

All kidding aside, $250.00 is more than a fair price. Unfortunately, this is the worst place to sell swag.......it either doesn't move, you get pages full of unsolicited advice or you get lowballed........welcome to NAM!

If I don't upgrade my pulley this month, I would jump on it but dam.
Modding for April is goner.

Can you get JCW Midpipe alone?? I'm afraid local muffler shop will rip off my *** if I wanted to cut the stock one to install it

I will try to grab it if it is still available in May

I just got an exhaust shipped for only $25, and that's including insurance up to $700. I guess if you really wanted to sell it you look for good prices.

Let me be helpful and mediate here:

- Since your offer of $250.00 inlcudes $25.00 for shipping..........

- Offer $225.00 to Msfit.........if he accepts.............

Set the shipping up yourself.

I was saying I already found another exhaust that the shipping was quoted $25. On top of that, it's a Quicksilver and the total was $325, so $25 of that is for shipping. Unfortunately, if he were to think that before instead of thinking it was a joke we might have had a deal. Thanks anyway

Hey MSFIT , don't feel alone in here. The marketplace is full of CHEAP @#$@s who expect you to give your stuff away. I have made around 20+ purchases on some high dollar items in the marketplace. Every Purchase I made was at or close to asking price. Why? Because someone paid alot more when new and if the price is fair why not take it.

If you want something grab it while you can. I would rather take the time it takes to find the best deal and use it to make triple the money you may or may not save. If you are a poor student you shouldn't be spending money on a car anyway. If you can't swing it this month don't expect a handout from a seller that was able to when he originally purchased that item for far more than the asking price. If the price is way to high send the seller a pm don't screw the seller in an open forum because they may not have the best price you have ever seen.

And if someone sells an Alta intake for $100 that doesn't set the market asking price at $100 it just means one person got a hell of a deal. Of course there is going to be someone who may be down on their luck who needs money quick offering give-away prices but that doesn't mean that is the new pricing guideline.

Just be fair to each other and pm sellers rather than try to make CRACK deals in an open forum.

If you box it up and its' packed properly, Greyhound is the cheapest way to ship awkward items. The Vintage Volkswagen crowd has been doing this for years.

I honestly couldn't tell you. I asked the person how much it would cost for shipping to FL and he told me $25. I have no clue how it's so cheap, but he said if it's anymore than that then he'll cover it. I would honestly prefer yours more because of the loudness of the exhaust. I am still contemplating whether to purchase the Quicksilver because I've heard that it gets pretty loud.
