Exhaust Tips.. Suggestions?
 

I'm going to have OT build me a custom exhaust.. I already know how I want it to be built, the problem is, I can't decide on any exhaust tips.. I found a lot while scouring the googles..

Suggestions?

those, in that order

This one, if it were longer, or if they stick out a bit. Quad tips, round, slanted, and long with the ends rolled like these are my favorite by far.

I saw an SVX with quad round ones at a meet. Like your first picture. It looked fantastic. I want to do that to one of my cars.

These Magnaflow tips are P/N 35168. These are rolled dual angle cut tips made of double-walled, T-304 stainless steel. top notch manufacturing and finish all the way! 3" Dual Diameter, 2.25" I.D. Inlet, 10" Length


PerformancePeddler has them.

Yup those fit the look of the car just as well as the stock ones, and look sportier too. And they stick out just the right amount looks like.

Re: Exhaust Tips.. Suggestions?
 

Yeah they honestly look like they belong there.

Re: Exhaust Tips.. Suggestions?
 

I like those.

Re: Exhaust Tips.. Suggestions?
 

They are the same Magnaflow slant-cut tips that are in my post.

Looking like the quads are the winners.. I'll do some pricing. The place that svxcess recommended has some deal going on that when you call them, you'll get better pricing or something. I'll have some story about how I can find them cheaper elsewhere I guess..

One problem.. 3 Dual Diameter 2.25 I.D. Inlet.. It's nearly impossible to find a 2" Inlet for these things. I'm planing on doing my exhaust with 2" piping so I want it all to fit..

John-

The ones on Bwana's car are significantly bigger than the ones on Olu's old car. Compare the pics. :)

Sharp eye, Mike!

Bigger isn't always better... it's just a matter of personal taste. The Magnaflows seemed to full the opening fairly well

I wonder if Bwana could tell us who made his? More photos of his exhaust tips can be found in his locker HERE

I had mine replaced a couple of months ago and wanted to re-use the OEM tips since my originals are in mint condition.. problem was that they would'nt fit on 2" pipe without modification so I opted for twin round tips... I wasn't sure about them to begin with but they've grown on me you might say.

These pics were taken on the day of the surgery.. the dirt and markings on the rear are from the tow bar that has now been removed for good. :)

The car sounds great now.. still on the quiet side but with a nice deep note. Also has noticeably more power and no change on economy.

I also have a 2000 grand am gt with the stock quad tips, personally I dont care for them.

Re: Exhaust Tips.. Suggestions?
 

I have the straight-sided oval variety on mine, slant cut tips.

I opted for a black chrome finish, to match my car a little better than the bright chrome.
