    Ive got a pinhole at one clamp that sounds like massive pinging under high load.

    Really sounds awful at times. I keep taping it or goo-ing it and it goes away for awhile.

    I'm putting in flex pipes between the downpipes and the catback when I get back from school to see if it fixes the problem and helps with fitment a tad.

    Actually I didn't and saving money to get problems that you have to spend money to fix doesn't sound like a deal to me.

    that's why i think Vibrant is the best all around exhaust. Inexpensive ($550) and build quality is as good as the best.

    LOL 1600 for down pipes, 800 for cat back

    400 for full exhaust, 50$ worth of modification, sounds like a deal to me.
    Your just lazy.

    And you have ebay SMIC, I bet those were a real deal! and work real well!
