    quad tips looks good but i think it's too generic looking, the turbo tips provides the right amount of flair, at least to me.



    Agreed, that's why I'm going back to the stock tips. I was convinced after seeing them on Larry's car.

    Well, the current quad tips for the Turbo are all Y tubes.





    How is it possible to put a Y on?

    You mean more like an F? If so it's still kinda weird.

    The exhaust _pipe_ is offset like shown here.

    The more I listen to you guys the more I think leaving them alone is the best idea.

    Get atomic to photo his tips for you to look at. Smoke do come out of all 4 outlets.

    Or, look at this pic of the FabSpeed tips:



    Btw I guess Y is not exactlly how it looked like, it's more like a y.

    I knew you'd say that, Nick. Sorry about that... I really don't think that the Fabspeed tips are a good option either since they turn "brown" from the heat emitted from the exhaust. That's what happened to my cargraphic tips originally and I ended up having them ceramic coated black to hide the "brown" stuff. Didn't look very pretty.

    And Nick is right, the exhaust gas does come out of all four tips.

    Atomic,
    will you be coating the original tips, or leave them completely standard?

    Mind reader :P

    Polished stainless steel do not keep that mirror look for long. I thought about getting the FabSpeed tips for the polished look but I decided not to because of that and I still prefer the stock tip shape.

    Titanium tips however are a different story, they also changed color because of heat but the discoloration of titanium looks hot, I think.
