Hacker Custom exhaust on its way
I just got my tracking order from Hacker Custom about a set of pipes I ordered. I was a lil discouraged that I ordered them exactly a month ago and its taken a month to ship but, quality takes time... I'll post pictures of them before and after install

ok, i said i'd post pictures when i got them on... a month later, i'm finally uploading them lol
the pipes have a very good quality ceramic coat on them, i will say the clearance between the rear pipe and the oil cap/dipstick is mighty close, but i solved that and took off the giant metal cap that is clipped to the plastic part of the dipstick... its just there for asthetics anyway...
sound is good, a medium pitched idle, but low in the power band when the torque is really bein made, it develops a nasty low grunt and screams when it gets to the higher RPMs... it doesn't have a nasty, obnoxious sound like straight pipes but i still draw attention from drivers of cars well before i get to the side of car when i pass them
All in, a well made, quality product
on a side note, to install them, it does require the smaller Screamin Eagle exhaust gaskets, as opposed to the standard ones

I like the 1 pipe under the foot peg. No dragging in right handers...
Even living 30 mins. from Hacker, I've never seen one or heard one.
