I assumed you are asking me?
No, Im not selling my extractor, the reason Im selling my midpipe is I have another one in my garage which I was going to use for racing only ( straight through pipe )...but after long after deliberating, Im going to use it plus a high flow cat and no resonator this time( Yes, Sliq...Im going to do it :) ). It makes more sense rather than chopping my resonator off my current one.


:shock: your car is going to sound like a half slaughtered cow!! just keep the resonated mid pipe in case you do decide you're not happy with it. i'll bet you lunch, you'll be driving in neutral 3/4 of the time by the end of the 2nd week because you couldn't stand it. :P
i can't brain today.. i have the dumb..

Mild steel would be preferable, but stainless wont kill me. I know stainless is a little bit more raspy but its no major drama. Headers are not a big factor atm, and the tone doesnt bother me as i have an idea of what im gonna get out of the 2 1/4. Im hoping its going to have a nice deep hop when the car is idle, but just subtle, and then agressive with throttle play. Im just trying to suss out a system i want, i think i might give the ebay one a flick, im pretty keen on ab7's setup./


Don't you think you should check your motor is in good working order first? You always seem quite hesitant that somehthing is going to wrong with it :?


My motor is in perfect conditon ( i hope ). Its just im always a bit cautious about thrashing it too much, because i dont want things to go wrong..
