i guess i just gained 5 bucks.

blast pipes would look very good coming out of the GS rear end. I would put resonators before each pipe tho to stop some of the drone.
imagine these coming out the back



altho those arent blastpipes. its the same look.
hope hahajoey doesnt mind me showing off his car

Car looks great! Not feeling the exhaust at all though. To much going on plus this thread is about straight pipes.

I saw GATO's old GS not too long ago and I think it has the resonators but no mufflers.
sounds good actually.

Unless you have 700hp and only use it on a track there are no ups and all downs! Just my .02......I guess some people think it sounds cool so to each their own....
