Default Murcielago modifications commencing......

Got this car in stock, so it's now a guinea pig.

As a lot of you already know, this is the monstosity of a muffler that's installed at the factory.

Here it is out of the car

And here's the replacement....<b>Yeehaw!!!!</b>

It will be nice to shed a quick 100 pounds, and the sound should be nothing short of awesome!

More pics after lunch, reinstall, and drive.
