Just got back from an autocross event and my buddy caught a pretty good video of the exhaust. Just thought it could help people make a decision if they needed a clip. There's a WOT vid under that account too :banana2:

That is just a nasty bark you have there. Sounds like you even have some back pressure pops every once in a while.

I used to be able to hear you start your car from my old apartment Matt. LOL.. I definitely love the new exhaust.

Ctrlraven- Matt says your exhaust sounds amazing. I was thinking about stayin with an H-pipe, any chance you could do a vid of the new and improved H?

Trust me I am dying to get some video but just not of revving the engine. It sounds best when it's under load.

I'll stay H-pipe even if I go boosted. I enjoy the low end tone a lot more than the high end rasp sound the X-pipe will make.

Control arms, Watts links ,cut coil and adjust air suspension is all happening this week

As for the popping, the guy who installed it for me (I can't weld yet:() basically used a 2" pipe to connect the Areos to the stock over axle pipes. So i'm going from 2.5" to 2" to 2.25" if im right about the overaxle width.

I told the guy that was unacceptable and he gave me some money back so basically im in the market for some MB over-axles to smooth out the pops in it.

It's silly loud now and I love it, especially when Paul(MMarauder03) and I go gallivanting through upstate NY waking up EVERYONE lol
Resonance FTW:lol:

We are LOUDDDD going through Troy. Everyone just stops everything they're doing and heads turn. It's a good time. I love the way the X sounds on Matt's car but I haven't heard a full mandrel 2.5" H yet... My exhaust is disappointing compared to his, on video it almost sounds like a subaru in a clip that matt took. "Paul Cloggin" :lol:

Haha, I don't care, everything was clear for your runs, I was always stuck behind a biker (who by the way gave me a thumbs up!) or waiting for you to pass so I could go. lol Just the "paul cloggin" clip though. I hated the way my car sounded compared to your... embarrassing! :lol:
