pipe

Well after lookin through alot of threads, I have a few quick questions.

1. I measured my stock pipe, and it's 2" pipe, surprisingly it is not compression bent(no crimping). Is any one else's pipe like this or am I crazy?

2. How much of a difference is there by replacing the stock muffler and using the stock pipe?

I would think twice about modding a new car that's still under warranty . The stock system is stainless steel and will last a long time , unless you replace with stainless $$ it's really not worth it . IMO . ;) After the warranty is up go nuts !

yeah, I don't wanna void the warranty, I have a 60k warranty, sad thing is the car is 6 months old and I already have 16k on it.
I was just lookin mainly for a deep note for my exhaust for now, I was just curious if there would be any noticable gain in performance. Thanks for the input.

With just a muffler you're not gonna notice any big increase ( slight ) , you 'll get a different exhaust note for sure if that's all you want . On a 4 cyl. certain mufflers sound better than others , you can end up with a shitty sounding ride . Maybe someone else can chime in about that . :)
