People say the tips rattle because the screws that tighten them on loosen over time

Could always weld it on. I dont see any problems if theres a good weld and its placed right. but yeah, fall back on the dual idea- I cant see it visually working. But it would be origional.

tips are fine imo, just as long as it isn't one of those tips that makes it seem you have a N1 or a Fireball.. getting a OEM type tip is a good choice, but there are some nice tips by magnaflow too..

and if you can, yes, get it welded on instead of just having to screw it on.

i wouldn't mind getting a tip too since it's 1) visually looks better than a pea shooter (again as long as it's not a 'fake out' Fireball..) and 2) it won't get you in trouble with the cops, depending where you live, since it's only a tip and not an aftermarket exhaust.. my .02 anyways.

like these you mean?

just buy an exhaust it gives you performance and sounds alot better. or just get a muffler welded on i did that at first until i got my full exhaust. dont get a tip. i think its a waste of money

You mean dual tips? like in the picture or one on each side? I'd say maybe to dual tips but 1 on each side just looks dumb on any 4 banger.

I'm sorry but just buying a tip is retarded. Might as well just get an axle back. The dual tip is off the 02-05 SI's, which don't even look good at all. And whoever said walmart tips, thats about f'n ghetto right there.
