And the dealers have no problems with the Fauxsaust...meanwhile you're rolling on 22's, I would think the dealers should have a bigger problem with that Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

Never a problem, still gets in with any warranty issues - even with suspension - but yes if I P ex it, they would ask me to change the wheels....

Saw the Magna flow but tips are way to short (IMHO) at 7.5". Should be at least 12". Check out the Griffin Performance Products I mentioned about. Way cool! mike murphy

The outlet on resonator sits very high, so they tend to point down more then the SC. 11" is length on the SC but that is way to long for the standard HSE and vehicles with turn down pipes.

The pictures below are from when I installed mine back in 2005.

FYI - Griffin and other Companies like BillyBoat cost upwards of $750 and you get zero performance improvements and negligable sound enhancements - its purely cosmetic.

If you are going to spend that kind of money you can buy a Cat-Back bolt on Magnaflow for $800.00 and at least let your gas pass mo' faster.

Hi Adam,
Thx for reply! Yes, Griffin is about $750 US and doesn't improve sound or performance. I like
the look of those tips though. I have the ones now that are the same oval opening that slip up the stock downturned hse pipes but as I mentioned I don't like the way the look from the side. I am waiting to hear from Griffin on just buying the tips but I don't think they'll sell them. Mike mike murphy

Hmmm, I do not really get why do you want to spoil the look of your exclusive motor with cheap tailpipes as a young racers would buy for his dad's saxo Rolling Eyes

currently there are many solutions to choose from to have the job carried out properly.

i personally have got oval Revere tailpipes installed and it just looks superb - see here Thumbs Up

Hi Coko,

Sure looks good!

Do i see it right, you use a tire cover to protect your 5th wheel?

Does this do the job, or will it leave the wheel wet after a rain shower for longer than without protector?

Is this an LR origional part?

Cheers, SW

SW, plastic cover that protects the wheel from the bottom and rubbery stuff from around. so technically no water/dirt should reach the wheel itself. however to be honest i have not checked if it does. Rolling Eyes
No it is not a LR product. This one is from revere as well as the tailpipe. But cheaper alternatives, which from description appear to be the same product can be picked up on ebay Banging Head
