they do make a good deal of difference though, powerwise, as well as sound.....you would definately want to take them out when you dyno or go to the track.....

With those exhaust tips right up against your bumper, aren't you afraid of melting your bumper? I've had it happen to me on another car at the track. Scraping the melted plastic off of the exhaust tip wasn't fun at all...
