I was one of the ones that missed out on the $20 Rytek tips on ebay a while back. I found these last week:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260418109208&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT

and ordered them from Bill Gurney. They came today, am I am very happy with the quality. They also have been drilled and tapped to have allen screws installed from inside so you don't have to drill through the stacks to secure them. No affiliation, yadda, yadda, but for anyone looking for the Ryteks I highly recommend these.

Another alternative is Spoilers for Less -- http://spoilers4less.com/plt-pm-573.html.  They are well made and cost effective.  If you wish to use just the tip portion, they come out easily with a little persuasion from a piece of wood inside the cannister and fit well into my 4 inch stacks.  You have to drill and tap for a set screw to hold in place.  Just my $.02 worth.  Good luck.

In the post above I should have mentioned that you have to type in "exhaust tip" in the search box  and, once there, look for item #PLT-PM 573.  Sorry

Keep in mind Bills are $100 for a Pair you will have $60 Tied up in these and His are a work of art and real quality. But great find on above Shocked)

I agree 100%. And at least with Bill's you have no drilling! Just use his pre-tapped holes with matching set screws that already have 'lock-tite' applied to them. It's a real "No Fuss - No Muss" installation. Took me less than 5 minutes.  cooldude

Bill, check my post at the top.  Could the tips have upped my back pressure enough to account for the gain I showed on my last dyno run? Hoser Smiley

New one on me, I suppose they could create a small amount of back pressure. I have not checked mine on a dyno for a while, might be worth a run the see if they changed any thing.
