one of the best fits that i have seen. if i were you i would invest in some extra rubber hangers as they seem to dry rot pretty often and break..... looks nice though.

Where did you get the exhaust future? How much did it run you?

Dr. Rick where do you get the extra hangers? Just go to my local autoparts store?

Yup I agree with Bit here looks a slightly rotated.. But really nice install futuregs.. Nice to get rid of those pee shooter stock tips and get some bass from the exhaust for the GS..

I agree with Bit; right tip looks rotated clockwise slightly (look at air space around the cutout in the bumper molding). But they look great!!

Looks fine to me its just the PIC. Future can you tell the Difference on the topend power with the exhuast or is it the same......We pretty much have to same set up minus the TC I have!

PM me with the price of it if you don't mind!!!

Most importantly, any DRONING problems?! Right now I am leaning toward RMM exhaust BUT the RMM style isn't on top of my list.


Very nice fit indeed in the pic.

Future, I see you got them on. The install looks very nice, did you have to rig it up like the way I had mine??:eek:

Now it's time to update your sig. Look at that... The mods just keep adding up, I told you.....

Thx everyone, I'll try to get some more pics today, regarding the exhaust, sound is great, VERY subtle at IDLE, no droning problems. Haven't really hit WOT with my car since I've had it, power gain doesn't seem like a ton, but is slightly noticeable, the car seems to shift a little better (Since now my SRT intake has a way of disposing the air it sucks)

Great exhaust in my opinion, if you want a great look and not a loud sound, I'd go with Borla, no questions.
