Did my first mod today. Installed a Flowmaster cat back. Its quite a bit louder than I was expecting, especially on cold start, but it settles down and is actually pretty mild if you keep you foot out of it. I haven't taken it on the highway yet but I didn't notice any drone around town
Pros:
Sounds "good" as good as a 1.6 can sound
Fit was excellent. Everything lined up and nothing rattles
Came with 4 urethane hangers. Nice touch as I was expecting to have to buy a set
Nice looking tips
Very easy install
Cost. It was $579 delivered
Cons:
Some numb nuts at Flowmaster cross threaded the bolt that holds the tip on the exhaust. I had to cut it off and get a new one at Lowes. Major pain in the butt
Those nice looking tips would look so much nicer if they didn't have Flowmaster stamped on each one. Laser etched would have been better or even nothing at all.
The muffler and resonator were painted black from Flowmaster. The car stinks to high hell while its burning off
Overall I'm happy with it. Flowmaster isn't a company that comes to mind on these kind of cars, but I came across their sound clips and liked what I heard so I figured what the hell.
I didn't take any pictures during install, I was too anxious to get it on. I don't have any sound clips either but Flowmaster has posted some online if you're curious
