Free 2006 MCS stock exhaust (Illinois)

The exhaust was removed from the car in 2009. It has been stored since then. The studs/bolts had to be cut to remove it, so they will need to be removed from the flange and replaced. You can see the remains here: http://home.comcast.net/~rwkeating/auto/pics/old.jpg

The exhaust has rust on it but no holes. I replaced it because I wanted a more aggressive exhaust.

The exhaust is in Lisle, Illinois.

Hi. What did you replace it with? How do you like it? (let's be honest here, sometimes my decisions are not always right ) Any drone? Low , middle or higher pitch?

I replaced it with an Alta. I like the sound but it does drone on the highway. My biggest complaint is I had a rattle, part replaced under warranty, but soon after I had another rattle. Here is more info. on my exhaust install.

Sorry for the delayed reply, but I haven't been getting notification for a while and I didn't realize it.

PS. I still have the stock exhaust if anyone is interested.
