[QUOTE=Mark Wagner;11190955]Next up some MKII side skirts. Purchased them from a local dealer and had a friend spray them and I installed them, total time for the install was about two hours.
How much did the dealer wack you for the side skirts?

I just took mine to a muffler shop with a picture of what I wanted done. I had them open up the PSE port and connect a pipe (gundo hack), nice sound at WOT but sometimes I wish it was a bit louder. The fister D mod puts a small pipe in between the two existing pipes, I believe that's supposed to be a bit louder and some people prefer that.
I also bypassed the helmholtz resonator with a silicone straight intake pipe off eBay for $20, made a significant difference and now sounds great. Covered the resonator with a rubber pipe fitting from Home Depot.

Just got the mufflers back. Very pleased with the job, he used stainless 1 3/4 pipe. The sound is absolutely amazing, this has to be the absolute best mod anyone could do. Many say it does not add horsepower, not sure if that is true or not. Clearly the exhaust would be more free flowing now so I would think it might add a little but not enough to tell in the seat of your pants.

Seriously a set of 200 cell cats will make nasty exhaust roar

Nice work with the mufflers. I hear you re: the wife and exhaust sound. I loved having long-tube headers on my Corvette, but Mrs. Schnell couldn't STAND the combination of smelling uncooked hydrocarbons from running catless and the (awesome!) noise.
