So it is finally done. Let me tell you the sound is "orgasmic". Sounds like a tuned 350 Z. Took out the mid muffler, put straight pipe in its place. Kept in stock resonator. Custom mandrel bent pipes at the Y were made to fit the dual Volt Mufflers. I am so happy with the sound and look. Can someone help me post sound clips...I can do video if that is easier to hear it. Very low rumble between 2500 and 3000 rpms then it disapates and the AEM CAI is all you hear from in the cabin anyway. I stopped listening to cds in the car because it sounds great....

Here are the pics...

I think it would look better if you changed the tips to perhaps some large oval tips, like on the 350Z.

 

nice exhaust, not a fan of how those mufflers sit or how the tips are angled though

 

I had a muffler out with a 4.5 circle like the z and it did not look good in the openings. I went with the oval tip because it is not TOO different from the squarish tip that is stock.

 

not my style but it is nice to see something other than the comptech

 

ehhh.. not a fan of the tips

 

Do you notice any performance gains?

The only thing is the tips that I'm not feeling, but props for being different....

 

I feel like there is a little more pull between 60mph and 80mph when I floor it in 5th gear. Granted I am sure I only gained about 3-4 hp...but linked with my CAI I am sure I gained a few useful ponies. I am gonna dyno it next month.

As for the tips, I did not want the big fart cans, and I did not want the dual curved up tips so I was trying to be as conservative as possible...

 

I would really like to hear it.

 

Why not just put the stock tips back on?

 

Because it is a lease and I wanted the most easy way to exchannge mufflers back when the time comes.

 

Any advice on how to post sound clips?

 

If it is a video with sound here, http://www.putfile.com/

 

i agree w/ everyone else. the tips are no good!! but I bet it sounds great. and I love the polished mufflers!!!

 

i think those tips would look great on my CL. lol. interesting choice in mufflers, i never heard of them. let's hear a sound clip.

 

Props on the install but is my humble opion that the tips look just off at an angle and somewhat small for the opening....

 

Good job, but like everyone has said, the tips are too oval and small.

 

Thanks for all the responses. I am very happy with it, especially for just costing me $225 (parts at cost only)

 

what configuration did you use, and what parts?

 

^^This guy left a year ago. He bought an STI.

 

^

those looked horrible anyway...

srt-11 pm me if you need ideas on going custom I got a price connection

 

I dont think enough people have said the tips are hideous so I figured I would join in.

 

lol, ive got the same tips and you said they looked good, haha weird....but they are being changed soon....

 

bro, the way they welded urs on... didn't look like that, his looked way too low

do wonder what you going with next

 

lol if excelerate can get a move on with the new exhaust, ill be ordering that one..

 

wow I'm retarded, how did I not notice that? We should prune threads of no educational value after like 8 months or something
