I have the standard ones with duals out the rear. I wish I would have gone with the 3" outlets. Don't know if it makes a difference, but I think it would look better.

Tips are just for looks. It doesn't change the sound. Your Flowmasters will get deeper after a couple weeks, then they really sound good! I have a 3" pipe to a 3" flowmaster to a 3" tail and a 4" tip, I love it. I can set off car alarms hehehe :)

I got mine done for $200.00 out the door, tips included (the smaller ones though). That is with splitting it to duals!! But I had to call alot of places for that price. I think my highest quote was around $420.00 and one place even said that it couldn't be done (splitting to dual exhaust out the rear, that is). If anybody lives in SoCal, I can tell you where I got it done.

I have 3" tips and I think it does make a difference. They're great for looks but I also believe they they produce reverberation (sp?) that makes a more "hollow" or slightly bigger sound. Plus you just can't beat the chrome.

Hey 92dakotahd, mine has that "hollow" sound too with a 4" tip, you could be right though. Mine has an almost "smacking" sound when I hit about 4000rpms at 3/4 throttle. I think it could be because I'm not running a cat.

just make sure to spend the extra cash and get the stainless ones and not the chrome.

chrome will rust so quick, atleast mine did. I had a set of stainless ones on there but got rear ended and turns out the body shop just put on chrome ones. damn them to hell.
