Default mufflers

ok since putting almost 2000 kms on my GXP im Happy with the bite but not so happy with the bite..

so off come the stock Bosal'* for a nice pair of Mach 28'* completely one piece stainless fiberglass packed mufflers.

they should give my GXP the bark to go with the bite.

whats everyone else swapping the stockers with ?

Wow ! Tired of them already??After 2000KM? After my lawyers stop stealing me blind And I get a license back... I'm gonna budget in an STS turbo and PCM Piggyback. Hope the exhausts holds up. When they go i'm probably switching to Corsa stainless.

*Ponders what a Shortstar would sound like with a Magnaflow*

Probably like a slightly more muscular and tuned bumblebee.

Hooker Headers Aero Chamber Mufflers
no fiberglass to burn out, the mufflers sound the same on my car now as they did 4 years ago when we put them on. nice deep low growl.
