Gonna try to record tomorrow. I'll tape a couple "bang thru the gears", an
idle, and a couple stationary throttle pokes. I'm hoping the tire bark
will pick up on the tape!! 8^)

Just in case there was any confusion when I described what I got......it's
3" center in/center out Race Magnum Welded. P/N 17220. The Jeg's p/n is
289-17220. $50.99 in the catalog I have.

If you have a muffler shop do the install (any good shop should let you
bring one in) you have two choices. Weld it in or clamp it. If you opt to
clamp it I'd recommend DynoMax's Stainless Steel Strap Band. Nice 360
degree seal around pipe. Form fits to contours. Jeg's p/n for the 3" is
289-35978. $8.69. I plan to upgrade to these as soon as I can. These
keep from crimping the pipe.
