My new exhaust

I recently redid my exhaust to tone down the volume a bit, and make it a little less appealing to cops. So I went for something that looked a little more stock but kept the free flow. What do you think?

Just old, it goes through salty winters. It's all stainless 3" piping out to 2.5" inlets on the muffs. There are no tips. Like I said I was trying to keep it a little more stock looking. The outlet is also 2.5"

Really? 2.5", looks small for some reason. What mufflers are they?

the tips look incredibly small because the muffler's are big. Looks pretty clean man, nice job.

Thanks! That's exactly why they look so small, cause the mufflers are pretty big. Either way I like the outcome.

I like those mufflers, which ones are they? The stock size tips are just what i'm looking for. I hate the rice looking tips of the N1s and such.

That's exactly why I did this. The HKS Draggers had a 4.5" slash cut tip!! It was way too big! I was recently pulled over twice, and both time the cops mentioned the "size" of my mufflers. Maybe this will shut them up!

Oh and to answer your question, they are Ractive M-122's.

Wow, it looks like your exhaust is pretty constipated. It looks like a funnel or something, sooo tiny!
