    What you said sounds fine. But whatever you do, don't go getting an overly big wanky one that sticks 6 foot out the back of your car.

    You just want one that nice and subtle, that just adds a nice touch to the car.

    Tomorrow doesn't look good either.

    theres a difference between a hotdog and a cannon, a hotdog goes has the same outlet as the inlet, so its basically an expansion chamber, effectivly doing the opposite of a muffler.
