It's not that bad.. a way to have twin exhausts on an XT/futura/fairmont without cutting the bumper.

Not as bad as the Magna i've seen at work, similar to that setup but with massive 4 inch tips either side. And it sounds like absolute crap.

The funny thing is that the exhaust is so oversize it would make less power than standard due to the lack of backpressure.
