That's wasting money. You would be better off finding a local custom exhaust shop (not Midas) and paying them to bend you your own tubes and buying tips/mufflers

Yea please don't do that, huge waste of time and money.

I can't really comment on the resonator for your car.

Well the full Magnaflow exhaust system would sound better than having a local shop making me my own exhaust then throwing on Magnaflow mufflers right?

I've seen and heard Chibi's GMPP/Magnaflow exhaust. It's all GOOD! If I was looking for a cat back exhaust, this would be very high on my want list.

As for performance, since my car is not boosted, I had no need to change anything from the cat back after I had the res removed.

All depends what you are after and what your plans are. I can't speak to personal experience performance wise on the GMPP/Magnaflow (Chibi can do that), but I am sure it helps performance and sound. I know for sure sound, heard it in person.

Nah. The mufflers make the sound. Just get 2.5 inch mandrel bent stainless and slap what mufflers and tips you want and you got a custom system

About two months ago i got the exhaust put on from a local shop and the guy really took his time with it and it came out awesome. Thought i would post on this again to show you guys what it sounds and looks like. Only have two videos but here they are if you're interested. https://www.youtube.com/user/Brendocee55/videos
