Default skunk2 review

Well I just got back from putting my skunk2 exhaust on. So I figured I would write a review. The install was somewhat easy. The pipes arent bent as well as they should be, so if your car is not lowered, or you hit a big dip your lower control arm will hit the exhaust. The sound is amazing, at low RPMs it has a real deep tone, it peaks around 3000, after that it fades out and all you can really hear is the intake. It comes with a "silencer", I tried it out just for kicks, it doesnt really silence it, just gives it a higher pitched ricier sound. I didnt notice too much of a power gain, except that i would all of a sudden be going 50 in a 30.

conclusion:
If you want a very loud exhaust then this is the one for you, however(especially if you dont have a backseat like me) I wouldnt recommend it if you make long trips because it can get kinda of annoying. Right now I have a pretty big headache after driving back from my friends house which is 45minutes away, but it might be something you get used to. however if you want a ricy sounding exhaust this is not the one to go with. All in all it is definatly worth the money.

yeah its really loud, but very deep, especially around 2000rpm. I payed around $400. I just wish it didnt peak so early.

havent gotten one yet, but the new exhaust will probably attract some unwanted attention

Uhh...slightly. If you don't catch one on a bad day (whenever that is), they might let ya go.

Good Luck.
