And for people worried about heat I don't think this little engine would be able to generate the enough heat to melt a bumper maybe any exposed wires or over heat break and fuel lines that are close to it.
Cause some people dont wanna spend about 800 to about a grand for a exhaust that actually doesnt sound as good as doing a simple muffler delete.... And from what i have read, there really isnt any loss of low range torque. I have read a couple dynos of them doing with stock on and then with a muffler delete and the dyno never came up with any losses. There are some that have done a muffler delete properly and it actually makes the sound a boxer engine should. A easy mod that isnt much $ that makes you able to hear what the engine should is why it is sooo popular.
