[urq] SS exhausts

[Bill Bennett]

Smitty
  The only complaint I have ever noticed on the urq list about the Scorpion
System is the noise level, and that does not matter to me, when I am driving
my urq, the radio is low, I am listening to URQ music, not PBS or NPR, they
are in the backround, I listen to my car tunes, not the cd player. I have a
custom system, test pipe, every other year the catalyst for a week or so,
glass pack and box muffler with a trombone tip, when the 3" system
dies,(which it refuses to do) I will either duplicate it, or look into
Scorpion or spend the coconuts for the Dahlback system.
        Best Regards, Bill
