Is the guy you were talking about just a mate who knows what he's doing or he owns a shop and he gives you discounts?

Lol that's the exact system I'm getting...
Anyways. From experience with the BA, a dual 2.5" Mild XFORCE required no resonators at all to quieten it down. It had no drone what so ever actually, which I was very surprised about. The only modification required, was a small extension for the cat (about 15cm of 2.5" flanged to the outlet of the 4495's). I did have a hybrid cat, as the outlet on 4490's and 4495's are 2.5", and the inlet average is 3" for the dual 2.5" (note the 2x 2.5" pipes in the pics that have no mufflers on, I had to get that separate from Venom with the cat, looks as if XFORCE comes with it standard on FG's). So really, the only modification is that small amount of 2.5" to give enough room to put the cat in. But apparently it was a real prick to install around the rear axle (I understood why when I removed it, required to have the back of the car jacked up well over a metre... verrry dangerous lol). Not sure how much room there is with the FG's, but if you can fit a single 3", you'll fit dual 2.5".

As soon as you fit it mate please post a vid I'm saving up and won't be able to do it for sevral months if not over a year I would love to hear the note and see what it brings to the table

$4k is a lot of money, but i see the dilema... it is a nice looking kit... is it a genuine kit? or aftermarket?
personally i think im going to settle for a mkii xr kit, purely for ease of wallet and being able to find something private-genuine-possibly already painted.

Not worth $4000 for it even if genuine.
