$680 bucks, a hacksaw and some wrenches gave me a great sounding ST. No drone in the cabin and a perfect sound note when getting on it, my neighbors dont hate me either!

The clamps that come with it are fine but at the joint id put just a little Muffler Seal by JB weld to keep small exaughst leaks at bay…. You could also weld it for a cleaner look.

Nice! Seems like a cheaper alternative for those that don’t want too much sound and don’t have downpipes.

Quite a few people. No benefits to running them except looks, with the exception of the Fenfab intake which adds some fun turbo sounds.

Great kit and a fantastic price. It has gone up over the last several years, but still a nice bang for the buck.

The u-bolt clamps stink though, and will make it next to impossible to get the pipes off if the need arises. I used some good step-band clamps and upgraded the bolts - about four years and no issues.

Band clamps all the way.
