Default str8 pipein

Well I think Im going to go as loud as I can.

The local NAPA just sold me 8ft of 4" straight pipe and 2 stainless band clamps for $52. I think they screwed up on the pipe cost. anyway not to shabby.

But I had planned on removing on AERO and keeping the other. But I figured I would straight pipe it and see if I liked the sound. if I do than I'll sell the one AERO that I was going to keep. If I liked the sound of the AERO than I can always cut and reinstall.

Im also thinking about going to a 5" tip instead of this 6 incher I have. Im just afraid Im going to catch this big old bow on something. LOL. it sounds awesome but it hangs a little low for me.

I'll have to get my buddy with his viseo recorder to do a little smoking vid. When I get it done.

If ya want totally obnoxious, go with the Aero Turbine 5050. Five inches of wonderfully constant headache. Sounds like a tractor trailer going by.

Why do you plan on taking one of the Aero's out?

Just to see how it sounds. it was 6 dollars for the extra pipe to do it so I figured I would see how it sounds.. and If I dont like it I can always put the one back on.

I love my straight pipe. I took a piece of 5" and crushed it down around the 4". No drone, good sound IMHO...

Yup. And my kitty ran away today... I finally got to see a real black poofie and I LOVED IT!!!

I can't believe I waited so long to, uh, let the cat take it's leave. It made an awesome difference in the sound. I can't keep my foot out of it!!!
