New Exhaust for the XR-7

Finally got the exhaust done on this car.  OEM 5.0 shortys, Magnaflow 2 1/4" Catalytic H-Pipe, Magnaflow lers, 2 1/4" Tailpipes w/ turndowns.  Has a deep sound, I hope it's not too much, I'll drive it awhile and see.  Installed by "Kasper's Korner" in Blackwood, NJ.  Anybody in South Jersey looking for a place to do custom exhaust work, they were very accomodating as to what I wanted to do, and had no problem installing the parts (H-pipe and Headers) I brought in.

The cats should quiet it down some. I have a 2.5" mandrel bent H-pipe and full dual exhaust with no cats and Flowtech Afterburner lers. The thing will set off car alarms in 2nd gear driving down side streets at 20 mph :hick:

I wanted to keep the "stock" ;) look, so I stayed with the non-chrome turndowns.
