another exhaust option for 2013

looks like a nice package for a person that just took delivery of their 13...
Id be all over it but I hate doing stuff twice if I can help it.

heard that! LOL but I did mean "for someone who hasn't bought an A/B yet for their new car. It does come with that diffuser....
I'm pretty happy with mine with the rezi delete..
but Im not gonna kid myself, no doubt this muthaf*kc*r has the potential to sound pretty nasty too
Curious to how much they weigh though, If I remembered correctly we shaved 3lbs each off from the oem A/B pipes. These look heavier hehe

I definitely agree, about $300 too much but we could say that about alot of things LOL
There's time, they still need to get it in stock and hopefully other vendors will have it by then also to price match it down
I'm sold, it will be on my car.
But for now,, and its free hehe

Does anyone know if LMR's pricing for the valance and quad muffler is a fair price or jacked up? Very tempting but I wonder if those two parts could be had for much cheaper.

The pricing isnt that bad. The 2013 GT500 mufflers are $305 per side to start with. I went with Magnaflow's quadtip exhaust for my 2012.

I'd say that price is about $50-$100 less than you could buy the parts from anywhere including tousley... Or may be on par with tousley

Just as I thought..they dont have it in stock and doesnt have firm delivery date. LMR charges your card immediately too..not when it ships out like most stores. They do have 10 kits on order and only one is spoken for as of lunchtime. Ed, I don't know bro..the buck stops with Borla. Very distinct sound

no set date yet, caught this on another thread..magnaflow is offering a new quad setup also for the '13 GT 500. Kinda liked the GT 500 mufflers sound better when I was comparing it to the magnaflow street A/B though.. I'll stick with FRPP
