Today I swapped out my Triad exhaust for one of Tangerine's EVO-IV stainless steel silencers (center twin tip). Nothing really wrong with my Triad, but I wanted something a bit mellower. Also, the coating on the Triad wasn't standing up to the salty East Coast winters very well. I need to clean it up and then figure out what to do with it.

It's all in personal preference, but I'm very happy with the new one from Chris. It has a nice low note that is not quiet, but also not too loud (trying to be a good neighbor as I leave the house early sometimes). It's also noticeably lighter (and shorter) which made installation a bit easier for one person. And it comes with the bung pre-installed.

Another shout out for Tangerine: total order to delivery time was about 10 days, and Chris answered my questions promptly and completely. I'm always happy when I buy from his shop....

And on the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) I'm glad it looks good, as I don't have a valence to cover it up.

do you need to buy a new rear valence without the tail pipe hole and then cut in your new holes, or just do without?

The best look would require covering the original cutout and creating a new one around the center tips.
