Anyone with side exit exhaust?
They look really nice clean... I had mine podercoated black and the outer rings polished to give my CME a really nice look. SLP did that to their shop cars that would go around tours and such and it looks much better black with bright rings than the cast silver.

Its so g-damn loud
Does the tube run along side the car or does it run below the rockers?

Would look very nice in my opinion.

I was under the impression that side exhaust where illegal if the car did not come stock with them? Any way to verify this or to find a way around the law so that i don't have to yank them when I get the car inspected? I was thinking about doing an exhaust like the Roush stangs.

from what i have read, although i could be wrong, the exhaust has to exit from under the passenger compartment. so side exhaust would satisfy that requirement. this may be differnent in **** states like california though

someone correct me if i'm wrong. i think the problem with the boom tubes is the drag on everything.
if you look close at the sunoco camaro, they did what i thought about. it looks like they cut through the steel frame on the bottom of the car, not the side molding......i was told this would "probably" not be a good idea.
most everyone else runs them under the steel frame therefore causing some real scraping issues. i would guess that's why they're not more popular than what they are.

I think if you want a side exhaust, make it thin and then add a skid plate to keep it from being crushed.
That Sunoco basically had a skid plate in the form of the cars metal. They cut a slot out for the tip. Anything that hangs down lower than the car is going to get scrapped and something thin like those boom tube tips are going to get crushed. Adding a skid plate will still scrape, but it won't hurt anything and it will keep from crushing the outlets.
That's my 2 cents.

Someone just might have a Firehawk in Santa Fe Springs right now being
fitted w/ thier 'beta' kit.
This will be released soon as they get done with the molds.

Just happens that I'm in S. Cali =\
Does any one know if they make Stingray Corvette type on exhaust with it on the whole side of the car for Camaro's?
