Maybe have the exhaust exit out from behind the tire ? I know probably to far back.

 

I wanna have it exit in front of the back tire. Probably the passenger side b/c the exhaust starts on that side.

 

I know but it might give enough room so you don't have the race exhaust sound. IDK just a idea not butthurt here lol

 

We have done this and you might want to look underneath you car for a good long while before you start ordering parts. Some of the challenges are:

-Lots of heat. The exhaust is very hot off the motor. Over 1,500F out of the block at WOT with higher rpms. It stays hot for a while so the shorter your exhaust the hotter it is.
-Bulkheads. There is no great place to "turn" the exhaust to allow it an exit. Keep in mind you have a fuel tank back there and the heat shield doesn't cover the entire front face of both sides of the fuel tank.
-Ride Height. You will find that proper clearance for your exhaust has the exit from the car right through the rocker panel and door jamb.

Here are a few pics that might help shed some light a project like this. Keep in mind that we made this nice and large to keep the car interior as cool as possible. Typical logged interior temps in the summer are about 125F using a race exhaust in the stock location.

Hope that helps. You are in for a big undertaking. Oh....and you'll need space for at least one muffler too (which is why the size of our tunnel may appear large). You can get some custom race mufflers that are small in size and have additional baffles to reduce the sound a bit. Many of these fabricators (and this is true) use LAVA ROCK inside these mufflers. True story. Check it out.

 

you know... i've always thought twin slant exit tips out of the passenger rear door scratch guard/rock guard would look awesome.

but of course, it means that you need fabrication, exhaust wrapping, heat shield, etc. and not only that, it means the motor would have to be turned off when passenger rear doors are open, otherwise melting the doors. not very streetable imo.

if only it was a race only car...

 

This would look cool just not sure how it would sound as a daily driver.

 

Mine is definitely not gonna be a daily. I expect to drive it maybe one a month or so. Its gonna be far too low to really go much of anywhere honestly, lol. If I don't do a custom side exit, i'll likely go with the 5-zigen Pro Racer ZZ cat-back....or if i'm feeling adventurous and rich (lol) i'll try to source the Fabulous cat-back.

 

No muffler. Or resonator....or cat for that matter. Just a header (TiTek), a custom straight pipe and a tip.....lol. Like I said.....NOT gonna be a daily. Just a stanced out cruiser. Plus there are no emission where I live.

 

You really should take what Eric is saying to heart...you'll regret otherwise. Especially with this kind of mod...

 

dude its the heat that will mess this up--especially with just a cruiser. Currently the chad on the bumpers are MELTING from tailpipe heat on some cars. And its too hot to even be around the gas tank/lines.
