I need a new exhaust since mine has rusted through, and this one looks like it should fit my stock exhaust holes well. Any experiance with this exhaust, and how it sounds?

i had the thermal R&D on my 2k1 forever .. put it on in 01 .. and today it still is as good as new with only a few scratches and dents from hard driving ... the sound is good imo .. not sure how it compares to the magnum version tho...

I might have to get one. I'll just absorb the price. Does it fit in the r/t exhaust cutouts like pictured?

according to their pic it does ... the non magnum version has both tips on the pass side ...

It fits dead nuts on. Easy to bolt-up, amazing sound. Great fit, finish and welds.

I give it three thumbs-up.

i have no experience with the N/A exhaust they make but the srt piece they make is definitely one of the best on the market.

It will fit any Neon, but will require the bumper be trimmed to fit the dual outlets. (HINT: There are outline guides hidden on the inside of your bumper)

Its $319 from MPx, and is definitely one, if not THE nicest piece on my ride.

It's fun to drive with someone else who has one, they harmonize

Thanks for the soundclip. Looks pretty good too, athough it seems like it stick a lil further out than stock. Right now I'm debating over this exhaust vs another stock r/t replacement.

If I do get a stock replacement, do I just need the muffler, or do I also have to buy this "adaptor" piece?

Any one else have sound clips of the Themal R&D dual exhaust?

i'd buy a stock replacement....the thermal is a little raspy in my opinion...plus dunno i just don't like being loud when i drive

I'm going to go to the dealer and probably get one there. I found a few stock replacements on the internet cheaper, but with over priced shipping, it evens out. I'm going to take a few sound clips of my current one, and see if anyone wants to buy mine, cheap, when I take it off.

Well I bought a stock r/t replacement for 189 shipped to my door. This thread can be closed.

Thermal sounds pretty good, it's a little raspy when you get on it around 3k but in the higher RPMs it sounds really deep. I like it better on my white car than the black. I drove the black one to work today and after not hearing it for awhile it's a little raspier than I'd like it to be
