Hi all,
I have a question to all of you sporting this exhaust on a turbo S70, nothing techie just something appearance wise.
I've heard the tip sticks out a bit, can anyone snap a pic of it with a measuring tape or simply measure it from the bumper?
I have the exhaust and welded a Magnaflow metallic cat to the short pipe after the downpipe but since it is not installed yet, I figured it is much easier to weld it off the car. I could have installed it but I just moved in an apartment and can't work on my car until i rent a garage somewhere.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated :)

I've seen that thread while google-ing OBX but from the picture I can't say if it's 2" or more! I might just cut it, expand the tip side and slide it until I'm pleased with the look but I'm not sure if the muffler shops are willing to do that since it being stainless and not aluminized. We'll see :)
