Default 98 GT side exhaust/magnaflow

Here's a quick pic from this morning..

Originally had flow master 40's exiting from the rear, it got to be a little loud and every which ricer thought I was trying to race.

So in turn I got a pair of magnaflow side exhaust mufflers which is stock to most roush's, bought some oval tips used for Camaro's and such and took those 4 pieces to the local exhaust shop to bend and weld in.

Cost:
Mufflers = $250 shipped from a roush.
Oval 8" wide tips = $65 ebay
Install and welding with material included = $100

Total cost = $ $415

MPG went up a little.. getting about 15-20 mpg more

Sounds bad *** with out the drone sound

Sure they are not the best... besides the side skirts are hella hard to find.. tips are there until i can come up with something better.

The idea was to 10" long 1"- 1 1/4" wide tip...but its just too damn cold to do anything
