Custom 3" exhaust

I had a custom 3" cat back exhaust built for me yesterday. It goes from the flex joint back. I noticed more power in the upper RPM range. It sounds awesome. 4" tipsand a polished Magnaflow muffler.

Its a Magnaflow muffler with different magnaflow tips welded on. They are the angle cut 4" tips. At first I thought they would be too big but I think they fill up the arch very well.

Thanks!

Where at

Hi Mike, where did you have the exhaust done(what shop)? I was thinking of doing something similar. I'm up in Anthem AZ. I would love to hear it. What's the Pavilion? I haven't been here that long.
