Default The Exhaust Cometh

The last pictures of the custom plenum were posted in this section and I promised a follow-up on the exhasut. All part of the forced induction system. Got to get it out somehow. I will accept offers on the car.

Nice, there was a ZL1 done like that. It was owned by a guy in ATL for awhile, then I believe it was sold on ebay not to long ago. I have the same setup for my car, using Dr. Gas boom tubes. Looks good man!!

I think you're going to need earmuffs to drive that thing around. Either that or windows up full time. I have relatively the same setup, but I have turbos muffling the exhaust some and it's still loud as f--- under WOT....a blower with straight pipes out the sides is gonna be deafening.

Looks like a clean install though.

The torque arm is a BMR extreme, The crossmember is not installed, that is a piece of pipe to keep the torque arm in place until we put the crossmember in place.

Before I did all of this, I had straight through out the back. At Idle and at a 70mph cruise it was not bad at all. WOT was a completely different story. If you look at the pictures, there is resonators in place of cats, and there are sound barriers inside the mufflers that we added. I am certain it will be louder than average but not that bad. The noise issue was factored into the design. The only thing that is boom tube about the setup is the outside.

Once we start it up I will make some post about the noise.
