They do have one listed on their website. I think everybody just goes the RB, Borla, Greddy, MS route.

I looked underneath the SR car at Sevenstock7, and all I can say, was damn that exhaust looked nice. 3+" mandrel bent all the way the back! Must free flow like a ******...

PS: It sounds good also - nice and throaty - I watched the SR car go down past MNAO - sweet.

After much conversation with Gregg, SR has added exhaust pictures to their site. Their exhaust is supposed to use the thickest 304 SS, while being 15 lbs + less than stock, should be more quiet than most of the other exhausts. I am planning on placing an order next week for the exhaust. My car will be a traveling billboard for SR. Will post results after installation, probally within 2 weeks.

They have a "thru Oct. Sevenstock Special" that you can get 10% off. FWIW. SR Motorsports makes really good stuff, but it is $$$.

Borla: 12 Lbs lighter than stock, 3" tube back to the muffler. Great sound. Million mile warranty. And around $500. :D

SR exhaust on its way, should receive by next Wednesday. I will try to have it installed by end of next week.
I am planning my next upgrade - Greddy E manage install by Acosta Racing - they will perform multiple dyno runs. They believe I should see an additional 10-15+ HP. Not cheap, about 1 K. Pimp my ride !!

Havn't people on here gotten waaay more than that on a well tuned ECU. And if they're charging you that much you should be getting more than 15hp. But as Rotarygod says it's all about tuning.

I personally have a 6 year 100,000 mile warrenty on my 8. I spoke with the dealer and they said that aftermarket parts would not effect my warranty provided that I didnt mess with the computer.

As much as I want to trust "some guy in Australia that I have never met" (CZ) to send me a tuned ECU... I just cant bring myself to do so. Dont get me wrong, I think its great that some people have had good experiances with it, but it wont be me.

Good point can't argue with that. I don't have one at all due to the warranty issue, but with how much I drive my warranty will be up in 2 years anyways. Hehe, good luck with it.
