I like!! I am thinking the same but 2 1/2 with Flowmaster 40 series. Would love to hear your car under acceleration.

Regretting it? Too loud for cruising down the road?

Regretting it? Not right now but ask me in a month...

Parts were 2 1/4" pipe, magnaflow x-pipe and two magnaflow mufflers ... I can get you a detailed list if you'd like

Does it feel any more powerful? I know a catback only frees up 5-10rwhp at the most, but wondering how the mod feels, since we already know it sounds great.

It does at higher speeds, yes.

I'm going to swap my 3.5 in intake into it and see how it feels then

3.5" intake with exhaust gives me a noticeable increase in acceleration ... Need to add resonators to eliminate a 1800 rpm drone though.

Throttle body porting, lower pulley, lower thermostat and radiator next...
