Default custom X-pipe install (pic/videos)

I Had it installed in my 2dr tahoe with short tube headers, stock cats, and dual glasspacks. Had to be custom made because there where originally two s bends there to mate up to the mufflers. Very tight space to work with. It isn't too pretty but it works.



Here is a revving video. The first rev is about 3K and the second about 5K. It sounds lower and smoother while it is under load and in the cabin. The inside video is just accelerating normally from a stop sign with the windows down. I was going to do full throttle but someone pulled out in front of me right when I got to the stop sign.

Yea this guy was not very good at welding but I only paid $100 even for everything. I got it done at triple A muffler. That includes them running tests to see where it was leaking because I kept taking it back to them for the ticking exhaust leak noise. It took them a couple of tries to make it stop leaking. Also found out one of my headers was leaking so I fixed that my self.
