[QUOTE="Johnny O, post: 911097, member: 61743"] Also the labor cost of cutting and pasting to make something fit with your stock exhaust will usually end up costing more than simply buying a cat-back system, which will have the added advantage of bigger pipe. OE exhaust systems are welded together into one piece. Even if you cut it off behind the muffler, the tailpipe ain't coming out in one piece to put it on the flaring machine so that it fits the new muffler. I know this to be true first hand. Besides which, the tailpipe has a resonator in it which you don't want anyway. My take, get a cat-back system and have a muffler shop bend the tailpipe to fit the Adrenalin application unless you can get a system that comes that way. [/QUOTE]
