X-Pipe Installed...
Just had an X-Pipe installed on my '04 4.4. As NCX and Pepa reported, it is subtle but noticeable - very nice indeed and just what I was looking for. I got the pipe from where NCX suggested here for $79.79 (including shipping) and had Lou's Custom Exhaust install it. Lou's charged me $63 even (including tax and a few sections of pipe) so the total for this cool mod came to $142.79 - a bargain to say the least! Two guys worked on it together - one measured, cut, bent, and flared the extra pipe that was needed while the other guy welded everything up as the pieces were made. Took the two of them 30 minutes total - I was able to do it at lunch with a little time to spare. Happy days!

Thanks NC - and yes, on to the next mod! I'm really curious to see if someone comes up with a source for that new sport steering wheel that Steved showed us. LeMans might be on to something working w/Vaheh over at Crevier...

Slightly better exhaust note - that's about it!

Hey X5Jay, can you post a file with the exhaust sound? That would be great.

I'll try, but can't do it anytime soon - work is crazy busy right now and is only going to get worse over the next several weeks...
