Sorry to open up an old threadage but I have done the same with my VT calais
deleted rear muffler straight thru from diff back with flanges 2.25inch.
It cost me $100 at the local exhaust shop, you got a sweet deal mate!

Cheers,
VT97Calais

Well not really the Rockford Fosgate (RAVDVD2) was about $1200, Sub $60.00 (good old cash converters) the amp about $200 ish and the pioneer front & Back about $180 ish and to my surprise it punches out some wicked bass epically when you are watching transformers. ho yeah the center speaker (Rockford Fosgate) was free!!. The PS3 Does not really live in the car you have to be bonkers to leave that in the car that is just asking for someone to break into you car!! don't want that to happen when i am just about to sell the car!
