The issue is the limited space available. The stock mufflers are compact in my opinion, and the plumbing along with tip placement just complicates things even more.

That is why it is difficult to replace the mufflers with a high flow type, with a more aggressive sound. I am all for hearing my power plant scream, but do not run straight pipes. The cats alone are not enough to refine the tone.

My suggestion, find the smallest, and I mean the smallest high flow mufflers available. Get them installed and worry about the tips after.

I'll see what I can find, right now I have MrCouches 4.6 mufflers in there and they look great with the tips, any suggestions on brands?
