Smile Check out the 3 inch mandrel bent dual exhaust that we made for the Solstice (pics).

Here are a few pics of the 3 inch 304 stainless steel mandrel bent dual exhaust with in house fabricated x-pipe, Vibrant polished stainless steel "mufflers" and 4 inch outlet tips that Dave of FLP made.

Looks good. You have a mandrel bender in house? Just noticing the drivers side pipe right before the muffler has a couple slight bends.

A good customer of ours bought this 2006 Pontiac Solstice through the dealer where Mallet did the LS2 conversion. We made a few changes such as a T-56 from from a the Chevrolet SSR in which we made an adapter plate to use the stock shifter, a Cadillac CTS-V 3.73 rear end, a modified CTS-V driveshaft, LS7 clutch, an LS2 based stroker, and a custom fabricated mandrel bent 3 inch 304 stainless steel dual exhaust with x-pipe, polished stainless steel Vibrant "mufflers", and stainless steel 4 inch tips. This car is a beast for sure. It sounds wicked and the car shakes pretty good at idle. Next on the agenda is a different hood, front end, and to have the car painted to match the intake manifold (the new orange that is on the 2008 Solstice). So if you see this car on the road, stay away... the owner is a crazy greek and he'll run anyone that looks his way.
