Well, I decided to get rid of the red glasspacks. I just could not hear the stereo over that sweet exhaust note. The drone was a little excessive, too.http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=25754
So, I decided to take the plunge and spring for this....
The work was performed by Claude Mervine at Mervines Exhaust in Shillington, PA just outside of Reading. It took longer then I wanted it to, but I'm much better now.

So how's it sound? I'm going with an H-pipe instead of the X.
Rich,
That looks great. I'm sure it sounds great as well! I hate to rain on this thread, but that l/r shock absorber sure looks like a 'leaker'. this coming from the head Tokico cheerleader . . . NOT! Put up a clip when you can so we can hear that x-pipe in action.
Best luck,
J

Rich, I gotta get new eyes, what brand are your mufflers? Is the car stock north of the x pipe?

Yeah, I noticed that last night.... I'll be taking her in to get some things done in a week or , and we will see if the extended warranty helps out!
How would one go about making a clip of the sound, then posting it?
I have never done such a thing.

The H pipe will probabably give you more of the "rump rump" sound.
The x makes it a more constant note.
But it sure sounds cool at 4 grand with the OD off!!!

18" Magnaflows and the Cobra manifolds.
The only engine mods are bolt ons for now. I'm preparing for a bit o' boost in the near future.

But it sure sounds cool at 4 grand with the OD off!!!That's what I've found from researching and from various perf. shops I've been too, no real performance gains by either just difference in sound.
