Default so yeah i started my car up with no exhaust today....

and it sounded pretty awesome, i mean... for a 4 cylinder. it was running straight out of the stock manifold.. i was in the process of putting on my S-Pipe and i was like man i gotta do it haha. ill get video tomorrow morning before i go to work... i havent finished bolting it up yet cuz i dont know what happened to my nuts that came with the S-Pipe so im gonna have to run to the hardware store to get some and before i put em on ill start it up for you guys and let ya hear it.
