Here's the setup:

(AEM CAI, RSide BBTB, Airram)
OBX Headers
Magnaflow 2.5" Hi-Flow Catalytic Converter
28" Thrush Glasspack
Custom S-Style Muffer (similar to the OEM muffler, with enlarged internal tubing for performance increase, non-straight through)
2.5" Stainless oval tip


Pictures:






I've got some video clips, but for some reason the sound was all distorted on them, I'll try to get some more in the next week or so and I'll post back.

wow nice tip!!! you finally got it done. only thing i don't like is that carving down there. you probably already know that would be brought up.

i had to get my exhaust a little lower than i wanted in order for it to go under axle. sucks, but what can ya do.

I actually had this done a long time ago, I just forgot I never posted about it until I saw REDZMAN's post.

Eric, I have a new fender, Type-R front bumper, Turby skirts, and new spoiler that will be getting painted and installed once the snow is gone. That cutout will also be fixed then.

The exhaust actually sounds REALLY nice. It doesn't sound bumble-bee ish at all, deep low growl. At highway speeds, you can actually have a conversation at normal voice level, and it's now possible to hear people when you're talking on the phone. I love it.

don't forget my car looks like his, exactly your color, but with a cf hood. you and i are twins. if there is one person on this entire forum with the same taste as me i'd say it is you. my car is basically your car done minus a few unfinished minor details.

not once have i liked the skirts on jaws' car, or any tiburon. i thought they looked rice rocket and square vents that go nowhere and do nothing other than stick out. it would be like having the most beautiful curvy woman have square boobs.

haha sorry man, i've learned we all have different taste, but i'm just giving you feedback so you know whats up.
