Any one have comments on the Skunk2 exhaust system? Looks pretty nice with the stainless build. Is it louder than the N1?

Thanks

Should be the same volume.

Can I just take the whole wire out, how would I do that??? I'm not really worried about going back to stock, i'll probably try selling the car as is when it comes time for a new car.

You could just take the wire out, but you would have to know where it went. Yanking it out would be bad since it might be connected with other wires.

Believe me when you go to sell the car it's best to keep the old parts or leave things where they were.

Just make sure you tape the ends so they don't short circuit your car. Why would it show or get in the way? If you tuck it up there right it shouldn't bother you either way?

well most itms that use electricity use two or more wires. a typical light will have a positive and negative wire. you want to tape the ends of each wire so they do not come in contact with each other and short out yor car.
