There is a piece of pipe directly behind the cat that is bent down and back up in a U shape with an O2 sensor mounted top center. This restricts exhaust flow so most people have it cut off and standard pipe put in its place with a new bung for the O2 sensor to be reinstalled. I think it adds around ~5hp to a stock L67 setup.

Looks kinda odd, but I think I like it! I always wanted to know what those tips would look like on my car, and now I know. I wouldn't make them my first choice of tips, but they definitely look sweet.

Are those stock 04+ tips? They look way better than the "horn" shaped ones

Yea now that your single u actually have some spare money huh? Haha I hear u man if she dumped u and u were treatin her right im sure she has alot more issues than u know and ur probly better off. As for the exhaust, like everyones been sayin, flowmasters sound great on our gp's, "Love that sound!" if you want louder, with a bit of "drone" in the cabin, go with super 40 series or 40 series, if you just want a nice tone and to free up your exhaust a bit, get 50 series. If your gettin the whole exhaust redone I would recommend replacing your DP and headers and go flowmaster from there. Hope this helps.

Sound is nice, doesn’t sound like a go-kart,(which is what I didn't want) its deep enough for me!!! Drone is not too bad, I wanted something that would still allow me to hear the supercharger, and this does that. Also, today I added an intake, so that helps out some.. Quick question, should my gas mileage improve noticeably? Are those stock 04+ tips? They look way better than the "horn" shaped ones
yeah they are stock 04, found them on ebay for 5 bucks!!!

No, because you'll be driving around with a heavier foot.
