I actually like the quiet ride on the 550, so replacing mufflers for sound was not an option.
After some carefull measuring I decided to install Borla Stainless Steel tips -PN 20154. (I got these from Summit Racing $55 ea)
After a trip to my local Powercoating shop - we decided on "Gray Ice" which is a Ceramic high temp - dark gray coating with a matt finish. These almost match my Ferric Grey 312 wheels perfectly. Probably would have done black if I had the M Sport black diffuser.
Cut off the old factory tips and tack welded on the new tips. Tips are slanted with a rolled lip.
Plug and wire tie off the factory vacuum line and we're done 
Total cost $380 |

Part# 20156 inlet diameter: 2 1/2" outlet diameter: 4" x 4
