I'm still waiting to see pics of the base models exhaust. We need love/attention too... lol. Were the more popular model anyway. A lot more sales to be had once the 04-08 3.2 liter owners see what you have to offer...

So, in the "RV6 exhaust only" dyno run, that was without the 3rd cat though, right? Just the exhaust bolted up to the stock J-pipe? Or was the cat still there?

Maybe other things, too, I'm not an expert.

I'm in NJ, so I'm also kind of interested in what folks in emissions states do...(I have a feeling they know the third one is supposed to be there)...switch pipes around when the time comes? Run a hi-flow cat(s) full time? Maybe a "Cheshire" Cat?

Or, rely on "friends"? I used to be able to do the latter, my bro had a glass shop...but he transferred to the license-plate business

It's all state-facility only here, they squeezed the private shops out of the inspection racket a few years back...after a lot of them invested $$$ in equipment to meet the new requirements.

ahhhh makes sense i never really understanded exhaust kinda interesting though... hey if it can really live up to the claims then more power to RV6 still would like to see some real world drivers finally get this an chime in...

^ I'd rather him take his time, and try to make this look as good as possible than try to rush him. I think with the Ti Tips he's ordered, they're going to look good.

LOL! Apples and oranges. As mentioned before, group buys are few and far between. P***y on the other hand....well you live in Boston too so I'm sure you know how that goes

I'm waiting to see the options for tips too so I'll definitely keep an eye on this thread.

^^^ bro you should drive around the hynes convention center! AMG's, LAMBO's, Bently's all over the place. there's some "coin collection" thing going one, like a billion dollars worth of old gold bullion and treasure being showcased.

And damn, the women on Newbury street... damn... I saw a group of models from brazil so HOT, makes my mouth sweat...

I saw Patrick Irvine (seriously) last night at Stephanies on Newbury, he says RV6 has the best exhaust... I'm just saying...

Got the tips in, I will unpack and take some pictures tomorrow. I might need to find a better source for the titanium tips. These look a little rough.

Rather wait for something that isn't "rough." For the type-s set up I do like how the stock looks. Being 33 y/o I don't want my car to look "ghetto" or "riced out." At this point I trust your judgement with the tips.

Still excited to see the tips that you got.
