Re: Metal pieces in oil and oil filter non magnetic

A helicoil was used on the engine oil sump drain and the metal pieces came from drilling for it .I changed the oil nd filter twice and all looks good now. I'm looking for advice on exhausts.it has a pair of scorpion exhausts, are too loud and backfire as well.will a original pipe be better?
