Oh, I guess it doesn't change anything. So I'm looking at 90+ just for the flowmaster 80 itself then? Speaking of exhaust from stock my car has round exhausts at the end, but it has these ugly plastic things attatched to the bumper that makes it look like its trying to be a square exhaust. Its driving me nuts, what should I get to replace that plastic thing?

Edit: How difficult is it to install a muffler? I'd like to learn how to do it if at all possible. And I have friends who can help me out who are in the auto mechanics business and have all the tools and can weld and such.

pics?

and again i'd stay away from flowmaster but that'* just me. go hear them on a few cars 1st. i hated them on my car and really don't like how they sound on stands and trucks. it'* like a hollow sound almost. magnaflow is much deeper and meaner sounding.

you could always just cut the bumper, lots of people do that. you'll have your choice of about 50 different tips at the muffler shop to pick from.

Alright, so I'm going to pick up 2 magnaflow mufflers with 2.5' catback. What size pulley should I downsize to and is there anywhere that I could read into about downsizing that pulley?
Should I get a cold air intake? I can't seem to find any for my year though.

they don't make a CAI for your year but if you buy the intense FWI kit you can make your own. its very simple. just do the exact same thing the other bonni guys do.

i'd personally only go down one pulley size considering the mods you will have done by then. then get a REAL tune and go from there. just google sc pulley or do a search on here plenty of writeups/info etc.

make sure to take plenty of pictures and videos of the exhaust. i'm sure you're going to love it.

Call or email Intense, http://www.intense-racing.com/. They will tell you the specifics for you case and steer you for any parts they may not cover for your year.
