I also think adding the muffler at the end will help with the resonation. The side exit pipes probably didn't resonate because the pipe length was to short. With the longer tailpipes, you may have had some resonation but with that additional muffler, you shouldn't.

SWEET. Tucked and tight, just the way I like it. Who needs tips anyway? I sure don't.

The other nice thing is, when I'm at the track doing my preparatory burnouts, I won't have to pick all the burnt rubber off my exhaust tips anymore

That is the nicest exhaust setup I have ever seen! The down spouts look much better than the tips IMO.

Well I managed to get a sound clip of the dual side exit system before we revised it.
Thanks goes out to dewmanshu for helping me figure out how to do this

This is the original configuration, enjoy:

Awesome sound!


Just noticed this is before you had the extra muffler put in. Patiently waiting for updated sound clip.

hey thanks, I just put the clip up last night, seems to sound best through my external computer speakers w/sub, doesn't sound like much on my laptop though.
