I wanna say that it’s normal...but have not a clue how some people are telling me their tips are getting just warm. Very interesting
Maybe our OEM exhausts, have these "fake tips" that make the opening bigger than they actually are, like a funnel. The "tip" that's exposed therefore is not as hot when compared to aftermarket ones. Maybe, maybe.
