Competition werkes exhaust

I'm still looking for an exhaust...I'm sad the AP's don't come polished and i'm not sure what it will cost to get that done.
anyone have this or know anything about it???

I know this one is not polished lol, but i don't mind the non polished look on this one.
The AP SS is not polished, and if I'm going to get something that is kind of stock looking like the 18" SS I really prefer the polished look over the brushed. I still have to look into $$$ for getting it polished....it might still be worth it.

Thinking of upgrading from stock exhaust. Love the look of the comp werkes. Also like the Hotbodies Growler. Are these really loud (as in will I get pulled over lots in LA)? Don't know much about these brands though as far as exhausts. Would it be better to go with a bigger exhaust specific brand? Any recommendations? Any thoughts on everyones favorite exhaust?

As far as weight savings, how much are we talking about here? Any idea how much stock weighs? I'd love to know more about performance gain.

Not sure if they Changed this But Area-P did Sell a Polished SS pipe, its a special order and they have an outside shop do the polishing, I think it was only like 25$ more, but that was two years ago maybe more money now or not at all

Most police in L.A. aren't trained to notice dB limit violations. If you get a motor cop or a special traffic division unit there's a slight chance you'll get attention. Keep your plates legal and they won't bother you.

Stock can de-cored FTW.

Hate to be 'one of the group' but I love my AreaP 18". They've got options both in finish (SS or CF) as well as the tip (down-turn tube or flat). The improvement in HP is solid for our lil' 250s as well as a good throaty sound. I've heard the Growler is a bit on the very loud side. But that's just my
