-how is the manufacturing quality
-any rattling sounds or crackling on off throttle deceleration
-do you have 3inch core or 2.5inch

Wow did this thread get sidetracked!

I have the 3inch core, I would go smaller to reduce the noise a bit if I did it over. One of my muffler sections cracked and it was replaced under warranty.
No rattling sounds.

Mr. Oz,

What noise? I pulled my ear plugs out when you gave me a ride. Where's your clock weights dude?

Although I don't own fancy side pipes, I would base your decision on the fact that you should wear ear plugs regardless of muffler bore size. Although too big may actually not be optimum.

Before you attack me you need to get your facts straight. I orginally posted options and how to check out a shop. The facts that you are posting are misleading to people reading them. I do not have experience with either shop so I cannot comment on each shop. I hope they both are great. Now for you, show me where I said I am the voice of cobra owners. I hope everybody that buys these pipes check out both vendors as well as other vendors. This is why this is a forum so people can ask questions. As for the price,they can be marked up about 1/3 to 50%. That is a general rule in business. I know what the materials and labor cost so if you want me to post raw data I will. With any product you have to make a profit, but to suggest that there is little profit on these things is absurd. The reason for a deposit is to cover the cost of building them so no money is spent out of pocket. Another general rule in business. Want to know more about business? These cars are no different that chevy kit cars, lambo kits, and on down the line. The only thing different on these cars is the engine thats it. These cars are overpriced for what you get and that is why I chose not to buy one. I am more impressed by a one of a kind car, classic or restored car that has a functional motor with a nice paint job. The issue I have with your posts are that they are not factual per se and cause someone reading them to speculate. Next time you post give me facts thats all I ask for. Have a nice day!

Good Grief is right. Good meat is even righter.

I'm glad we now know who first designed what, who created what, who made what and who was the welder.

"These cars are overpriced for what you get and that is why I chose not to buy one."

Good idea on the ear plugs. I noticed yours were gray. What are they? Do they fit your ear canal comfortably?

I have extremely large clock weights.

Mr. Oz,

They are finely crafted earmuffs made from the winter pelt of the Grey Beaver. I'm surprised my wife allowed me to use them without accompanying me, as they are usually clipped to her pant suit because grey beaver pelts are quite costly. The Grey Beaver is a boisterous, antagonizing creature known for its loud verbal exchanges and commanding personalities. It is one of those creatures where the female is the dominant alpha personality too, much like the black widow spiders. As you have seen, the grey pelt is very comfortable, very stylish, and has great noise cancelling capabilities. It fits my inner ear canal quite nicely for long periods......

BTW, I'm glad you asked, as they made your 3" bore interchangable stainless side pipes sound quite comfortable. They look good too.

Wow, thanks for the info. Sounds awfully expensive tho.

[sumyred1]

Can anybody read on this site? That is why I usually don't post because people are trying to advance their agenda and tell half truths to flame people when they don't agree with them. Where do I comment on either product? Can anybody tell me? I just commented on how to choose a shop? For those of you that are unable to follow the posts, it is post #18. Then people I see are trying to twist and spin things here so I choose to respond. I feel like I am watching fox news. I will stop commenting unless I am attacked. 2 last things, it is a kit car and I had an interesting talk with Buckshot today and found out many interesting facts. Thank you for your time. I wish you the best.

GOOD GRIEF
You, Sir ,Sumyred1, should indeed start watching Fox news, but pay attention you might learn something valuable about life in general,,,like when to just let things go, you are the flamer here and are not really bringing anything to the discussion IMNSHO, do you have a dog in this fight? If so ramble on, but otherwise you are just pi$$ing most people off.........someone shut the door please the trolls are loose again, .......

Me I'm gonna go listen to Rush Limbaugh now, Have a nice day, and watch your blood pressure, it's not good to get so excited about something that's not all that important, plus I have to go dry rub my meat, there's gonna be a big BBQ tonight, and ,No, you are not invited..............

You have no idea how much they cost me. Of course as you know, she has control of the grey beaver muffs, and much much more. She uses them as a point of argument also, i.e. if she doesn't get what she wants, she withholds the grey beaver ear muffs, as she knows that I can't stand the backpressure from my pipes very long. I need those muffs and I would sacrifice all that is manly to wear them. Especially with my 3.5" bore Howe racing mufflers, as they are very, very loud. When I'm not driving, they are held in her purse for safekeeping.

BTW Mr. Oz, she will probably be on ClubCobra tonight to respond for me. You will find out exactly why she is named "the Cold Grilled Cheese".
