6" SS EXHAUST STACK

[Kurt Horvath]

Gregg,

Yea, ALL SHOW AND NO GO!-

David,

I know what you're after but the pipes I described are basically
straight pipes with a very well designed sound surprising ceramic
coating that does not restrict flow. But won't be as harsh as a
straight pipe. Cost is nominal at $250.00 Vs $200 for a straight pipe
