looks like the RE-Amemiya super dolphin tail exhaust except not as good.

the flow looks like it has to make a lot of bends. the resonators(cats that you are calling) are able to be longer in that configuration instead of 2 smaller resonators. i imagine that would make it sound different, possibly quieter.

it probably has that dual muffler setup to provide the least amount of backpressure, while providing adequate silencing. Or it could just be for look/uniqueness

With the CAD being down you can really save some money. That exhaust looks cool. Did this company ever finish their twin turbo install?

looks badass, but IDK why they made a maze for the exhaust to get out

it will probably more free flowing than a conventional muffler. internally they have flat sides with 90degree walls,which are bad for gas flow dynamics.

where as the exotic speed has smooth bends to improve the gas flow dynamics. it essentially like having two seperate free flow mufflers, similar to motorbike mufflers.

I wonder if it sounds as sick as it looks.
