Recently had a Magnaflow x-pipe installed - very pleased with the results.

Quick vid; record quality does not really do it justice, but FWIW here it is...

I had the Magnaflow x-pipe installed for $200 including the price of the X. It fits perfectly in the place of the resonators. Absolutely love the sound. The x-pipe actually makes the 55 sound more like an engine with a 180 degree crank. Here's a video I took in June at TWS. The mic is bluetooth mounted on the rear license plate.

I've got the SuperSprint/Carlsson Xpipe installed on mine for 1 1/2 years, extremely satisfied with the quality of the product and noise.
