OBX Exhaust

After reading the thread about the obx exhaust system I decided for the money I would give it a try. 372.00 to my door less an exhaust gasket and 2 bolts. I have a 08 6 speed and it was a flawless fit. At first I was a little disappointed in the sound only because it was so quite at start up but after it warmed up it sounded much better. Very nice low tone and butt dyno tells me that there is a slight midrange hp jump. Over all im very pleased with the exhaust and the sound. Installation took all of 30 minutes and the polished stainless looks great. I do believe the these systems that are on e-bay are seconds because the name plate on one of the tips was upside down but not an issue because it cant be seen. Hope this helps anyone out there that’s looking for an exhaust system at a very reasonable price.

I agree with Hitmann. You should've put it in the other OBX thread because it's difficult to perform a search and research when there are multiple threads of the same thing.

I wasn't being rude about it for the first thing, but calling me an ******* is uncalled for. It makes it easier when you post these kind of things in a Thread that is open where many owners are posting there results. Why start a new thread for no reason?

If you feel the need to go else where to find information that is on you but don't let the door hit your *** on the way out.

How could he have made a suggestion to you without "coming off like a know it all"?

Say: "Perhaps you should have posted this in the other thread, due to the fact that the other thread contains specific information about the OBX exhaust, which will allow us to keep the forum in an uncluttered state."?

Some people...

Stop feeding the fire it will soon go away..

Parrfive - Always post in the existing thread before making a new one. Better for the forum and better for the new guys searching.
