I really want to crank the noise up to 11 I've heard that the VRS o/r x-pipe required no welding but I need to know if it will fit as a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory h-pipe. I am currently running full factory exhaust besides a pair of Flo-Pro (cheap Flowmaster knock-off) mufflers welded in. I need the x-pipe to be able to be taken off and be replaced with the factory h whenever emission time rolls around. The reason I want the VRS is because it is fairly $CHEAP$. Has anyone else here used the VRS o/r x? If so, what was the installation like? And finally, Where did you guys buy your VRS? I checked out their site but it was really home-grown and didn't offer alot of info - either that or I was looking at the wrong page. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, -JJ

i really like the bassani x pipe because of its design and it is easy to install. it is a little more expensive, but you can find one on ebay fairly cheap. it comes in three pieces so oyu can easily install it without it being aquward. i would go with a bassani if i was in the market for an x pipe

it can bolt right in, it just comes in peices and hast to be welded together in the middle parts, but it has flanges to connect to the headers and the catback, correct me if im wrong.

I just purchased the UPR x-pipe w/ MIL's online like twenty minutes for 200 bucks. I searched the SN forums and the UPR o/r x clearly seemed to be the best deal out there!
