no mess. only time it will create one is if your at the car wash and get water down in there. the hood stack really is amazing it keeps engine bay temps way down. It's not a slight difference its a major difference in temps (25-30* cooler coolant temps). The heat signature when driving around and in boost is amazing. Nobody with a camera has been able to really capture it but when following my brother said it was 10ft above the car. In the car the passenger cant see anything it's just a big blur but doesn't effect my vision. I haven't had to pull the trans since last year but it takes me 45 min to pull it by myself and half of that was getting the whole exhaust off the car...so much easier to work on. It's very quiet in the car. If windows are down it's loud as **** if you start to put the windows up it's so quiet you can whisper doing 2500 down the highway

Is it like can't hear or talk to the passenger loud or hear the radio or is it just slightly elevated noise no where near as loud as a dump under the car right?
I have a bumper exit now, 3 inch with 2 12 inch bullet mufflers. Windows up its very quiet, windows down it is still pretty mellow. I can listen to the radio at normal levels and talk over that and the exhaust at the same time without issue.

The hoosier radials are the best tire imo but they go away after 6-7 hits. Still lots left but they just go away. I tried the hoosier QTP it worked decent then a friend gave me a set of these 28x10.5 et drag stiff walls and I haven't got them to spin yet. I want to stay radial but they just go away too fast but they'll take any sort of power new. So far the 275 hoosier radials and ET drags work identical. I may be a slick tire ****** from here on out on the street and use radials at the track...hell IDK. Point being if your looking for a good tire use the 275 hoosier or so far I'm having good luck with these used 10.5's

I can vouch for the hood exit. I had mixed emotions about it before I saw it in person. It really is badass. Not that loud in the car at all. Cruising back from the dig night at TX2K the sound system was louder than the exhaust was. Hahahaha. Easy to hold a conversation in the car without yelling
