Thermal R&D

I just got a 3' Thermal R&D Catback on my car and it sounds sweet. I noticed a huge gain in power too. Just thought i would let others know my opinion on the product.

Yea, i tottaly agree. It is real real deep sounding. Cant wait to get a DP and no cat.

FYI- This exhaust has 1 bend in it, right before the muffler, and its a small bend, it is alllllllllll straight. it looks so nasty.
