Here are the pictures of Mark's Kooks install with X Pipe and Aero Mufflers and Magnaflowtips, I will say this set up has a very unique sound. I am not a big fan of changing mufflers, but this is what Mark wanted and he is happy so that is all that is important. We will dyno this car later this monthand I will have audio with it.

Dennis ... thank you and all your staff for the professionalism and hospitality extended to me over these past few months. Everyone I met in your shop - Steve, Ed, Derek - seemed to be just as excited as I was in making the mods to both my cars. Their and your patience thru introducing me to the Marauder's possibilities is greatly appreciated. You've made it fun keeping an open mind to new ideas while passing on the incredible knowledge you've gained being around this platform since its inception.

Also, thanks to CTRLRAVEN for the exhaust recommends and sound files. I'll see how quickly I can post mine. www.ourdealsrock.com (http://www.ourdealsrock.com) gave me a great price being that I was ordering four of everything. I placed the order on a Friday and had in hand by Tuesday.

When I got my first Marauder back in June 2009, I let a co-worker take it for a drive while it was completely stock. Yesterday, I let him drive the car back to the office from lunch with all the mods complete. His words were "this is not the same car I drove a few months ago". The expression he had for the exhaust note when stomping on the gas peddle was "violent".

Last nite, my wife and I were able to experience the sound of each other's Marauder as we drove home from a school orchestra concert. We had fun chasing each other and doing respective fly-bys. At idle, the car has that deep-tone rumble ... almost the sound of grumbling pick-up. Under full acceleration, you can hear the chop of each cylinder firing. My co-workers think I'm going to rack up an extra 20K miles just driving around the neighborhood. I can't wait for my next sales road trip.

Dude you are so welcome! Glad you like them and everything turned out great. I can't wait to hear a sound clip or see video. So what kind of power figures did the cars put out?

We are going to dyno both cars and will post stats with vids. Dennis's guess is 280 rwhp. Going to be interesting since my '03 is so close to the beginning of production and the '04 was nearly the last to come off the line.

I hope it's more than 280rwhp cause I have more than that with stock exhaust headers :lol: 282rwhp/309tq and that was on a Reinhart tune and I have more mods since then.

Welds look nice, wish the guy that put my mufflers in could weld like that.

I've spend the last 2 days trying to patch a small leak with exhaust filler metal compound stuff :mad2:

Sweet lookin. Gotta love how clean the under side of a FL car is compared to my NYS car that did 4yrs of DD service 365. Even under coated it still looks bad. :(
