few new pics and questions

I'm just going to get a muffler i think..I may get a 5 zigen fireball universal as the Bosal seems to be the only reasonable catback on the market and i just dont like the tip on it..

should i spend the extra for the true 5 zigen or get one of those replica ones for like $100 US with the removable silencer...??

anyway here a few pics of my subs (not yet completed install)
my new broadway JDM mirror
and the winter that makes my car dirty hard to believe it was washed just 2 days ago

Looking good. Looking very good.

As for the muffler. The 5Zigen also has a silencer that you can purchase.

yeah i know however is it worth it to spend 2-3 times as much for the 5 zigen? then the replica fireball? I know its better quality will it sound that much better... I guess seeing as i got the 5 zigen rims i may as well get the 5 zigen pipe

now if that damn snow would just leave

My buddy's got the Ractive equivalent of the 5Zigen Fireball. He's got the 5 inch one. A little big but definitely pushes the sound through.

It's not a deep sound by any means. And it's not entirely similar to the 5Zigen, as the 5Zigen is a deeper tone.

But it's "all about the bling bling".

very true

i just got a quote from the place i got my rims from
5 zigen universal 409 canadian tax and shipping in..
bit steep but i guess ya pay for quality all in all little over double the cost of a replica. plus whatever it takes to get it welded on

just so you know, bosal makes different tips. and the cat-back avail for the pro's has the option of interchangable tips. they just bolt right on.

yep, they are Alpine type-r's (these handle 1000 watts each)
unfortunatly for now all they are getting is 150 rms each or about 1/2 of what they should get. they still hit hard though and sound sweet..much nicer then the type-s. i'll soon be picking up a bigger amp but for now the jbl will do as i need tint and exhaust first

http://www.bosalperformance.com/cata..._tips_cat.html The tips that are listed as "bolt-on" should just "bolt-on" to the Bosal system.
