Bourkey Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Dam that exhaust is sooo nice. That sounds great as well. I've heard one before. They are very subtle sound and not too in your face. Good choice of exhaust there.The defis are very good gauges but waaaayyyyy too expensive for me. But if ou picked them up at a good price then spot on .Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
