Yea just do it and see how it looks. Its cheap and if you end up not liking it you can just peel it off no harm done.

Finally grew tired of my hks single exit and having to choose between slightly off but quieter noise with silencers in and the unbelievably punishing drone and rampant noise without silencers. Realized I'd never be able to do other exhaust mods bc of the already ludicrous floor volume.

Ordered a Lachute Performance catback. It's barely lighter than stock but this is truly irrelevant off the track. Will probably keep the hks for track days but still unsure.

Unlike my hks, will try to post sound clips when this one shows up!

Please do! I'm really considering the lachute ... I have catless headers and front pipe and I dont want my exhaust any louder... Honestly quieter would make me happy...

Lachute seems like the best option for my goals.

Will do! They told me it's one of the quietest on the market, and they modify the magnaflow mufflers they use to add extra deadening. Still get extra hp tho!

Also FYI the pricing on their site is CAD, a catback from them is under 800. That tripped me up at first. Mine should be shipping today or tomorrow, just have to call them and confirm some stuff.

You realized the Lachute exhaust tone is in French right?

Aw shit. Well I'll just call you, put you on speakerphone to translate, and you can just say "BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" in an American accent for me. (Assuming you speak the same French Canadian Exhaust dialect as the pipes)

It should arrive Thursday or Friday, god willing, but we'll see when they ship it out and if customs decides to be buddy buddy with it and have it hang out there. Lachute doesn't seem to move extremely quickly either so who knows. Excited either way!

EDIT: The exhaust is Québécois, and you're one o' them Franco-Ontariens, so I'm not sure it'll translate directly.

And that nice sexy super low rumble. Should work out well with my set of catless EL headers. Cross fingers!

And even cheaper than I was willing to pay!

What a day.

Finally had the time to install these tail lights. It didn't take too long but swapping out the flasher was a pain.
