yea, the word is most insurance companies will be increasing home owners premiums if they haven't already due to roofing costs.

insurance companies blame roofers costs. roofers blame oil costs.

You heard my exhaust and dump. I'm running a Buschur 3" straight with test pipe an eBay downpipe. I lined my trunk with sound deadening and will probably add some more under the seats. Without it, the car droned horribly on the highway above 65. Now it's just bad at 80+. Personally I would go quieter if you're not putting down stupid power where you need it.

Acree is correct. I have a Worx catback and it is nice and mellow. After owning a few 4g63 cars you learn that loud drone gets old quick. Lol. Worx is a nice quiet one out there and i have a test pipe as well.

On another note one of my coil packs suddenly died at a stoplight. I had to limp home on 2cyl. Lol do these coilpacks sucks this bad?

Magnaflow makes quality, nice sounding, exhausts for relatively cheap. Perrin and Cobb also both have nice exhausts for the 8/9's.

Last I saw I think Cobb had one sitting there...but I could be wrong. Either way, just giving you some more ideas since it seems like the classifieds are always full of used catbacks.

With the JDM brands watch out for neck-downs at the cat. I had a Buschur "Quiet" Magnaflow system on my IX and the volume level was pretty decent for a 8/9; still loud by X standards though. The Perrin was a little smoother/quieter yet.
