Looking good. Will the tip get too hot for the remaing shroud?
I actually like how the silver car has done theirs.

Sounds pretty damn good to me, not raspy from what I can hear. Just need some "under load" vids to see what it sounds like going down the road.

sounds good, not raspy at all, can't believe it's that quiet with that midpipe. That muffler must have a lot of packing.

i can say in person its alot different than on the video , just the way the sound frequency is it will set of car alarms on full throttle. its deep in a since that it gives off a tiny vibration on the ground at idle. when i first installed i was like i think im going to have to sell it to someone becasue i thought it was way way to loud that it hurt my ears. now for some reason it has quite down some. which is nice. Oh yea i havnt got pulled over yet for it. Turbo is next on the list

I will pay for 1 hour of dyno time in current n/a form if you do a coil upgrade(BHR), and tune-able ECU. You will need those upgrades before a turbo anyhow. Obviously this is post break-in...

Dam sound Sounds like a good offer that I will have to take . Right now the OMP protects engine in a since because it will cut the power if I try to take it 5500rpm which I don't mind.

sounds pretty good--I do wonder once the rpms/load increases if the decibels will go up? One of the Ga club members was black flagged off track by the sound police.

Did you pay for just the raw materials?
The weld that joints the muffler to the pipe is nasty and looks like the pipes are slightly different:

Yeah I just paid for materials those points show on that pic are different because it's a slip on fitting plus u have good eyes man I will redo it later another shop quoted me $1350 so I can't complain to much on the welding to much

is say spray down the piping with some black engine enamel, it will stand out less and clean up the looks some for cheap.

Bit of a bump, I'm thinking of doing this to my RX8, my only question is how loud is it? as most track's in the UK have a noise limit of 105db.

Yeah it does sound awesome considering his midpipe is non resonated. But he does have a resonator on the cat back piping right after the midpipe. I think thats why the exhaust still retains its deep tone.
