Default Mina rear muffler delete

They came in today Had my son install them while I installed my new windscreen. I really like the new sound,perfect. Not loud at all. A little more growl under acceleration. Got the oval tips. They look great but what a PITA to get straight. Round would have been much easier. Now she sounds like the sport/luxury car that she is.

Congrats! Wouldn't the delete utilize the oem hanger/mounts to make the oval tips easier? I really like look of the oval tips.

Still have to center them and adjust them in and/or out. Fiddly as they say.
We went for a ride to a friends birthday party to night. No droning and surprisingly quite but a nice bark. I'm done with performance mods well unless someone can overcome the six speed trans reprogram problem so I can put some gear into her. Any money spent now would be for nothing.

Rear muffler delete and adjust throttle cable. That's it. The only other thing I would do is rear posi and steeper gears. But the 6 speed gear box won't let me. Something to do with the computer and shift points.

And the looks of the tips are awsome. One side takes a bit to get straight and it keeps repositioning itself on me. I did a Hmmm how exactly do these hangers work..Wonder if I got it right myself
