Default New dual exhaust on the Miata, and 1/4 mile time

Well it's done! It looks and sounds great, and freed up a lot of ground clearance....

It's 2.5" Mandrel bent through 2 resonators and 1 muffler per side.
Picked up 19rwhp, and 20rwtq after the tune, now it makes 333 and 351.






Went to the local strip last week on some donated 205 drag radials and got a good run, but I think there is more left in the car after I tune it again for changing the intake setup.

Here is what it looks like off the car without the mufflers:



Then Installed:



lemons12- Just the shorty headers, exhaust, K&N, and tune.

z_speedfreak- My neighbor is a troubled teen who tried removing a tattoo with a knife that day... 6 cops swarmed, and drew down on him and his mother while I was outside taking pics... it was nuts.

damn thats a tight squeez under there, looks like its just clears the DS! are the first two resonators homemade? got any sound clips?
yeah I guess a knife would be cheaper than a laser

I think Im up to about 17-18k total. The resonators were at the exhaust shop that did the exhaust, he just cut and beat one up, then re-welded it for better ground clearance. I have some footage from a little drifting yesterday, as soon as my friend edit's me up a little clip I'll post it.

Freakin sweet. I saw this on M.net i think it was. It is an awesome idea to get around having to route the exhaust around the rear end.

And yes, post up some video's!!!!
