We are going to be trying a 96 mm throttle body and some 3" true duals with some Dynamax bullets. It is supposed to rain for the next couple of days but stay tuned we are working on somethings. I will put down the number we are all looking for here soon. If not I am going to burn this thing. LOL
Started nutswinging before finding out who tuned the car....... priceless!

I hope to get some tonight or tomorrow. I will post them up. I just need some different tips. He just put some generic turn downs on it with a tac weld till I figure out what I am going to do with it.

Hard to tell how it sounds when driving. It hits hard at idle but hard to tell when normal driving. I got on it a couple of times and I can't say for sure how it sounds out the back but from inside it sounds like all hell is breaking loose. You can also tell that below3k I have lost some low end torque but it feels as though I have picked up top end. I ran it to 7k and it did not seem to lay down. Won't know till we hit the dyno again. I will try to get a better video of it at least at idle for you guys tonight.
Trying to figure out if I will need to run a balance pipe or not.

Looks good, but I'd be concerned with adding some support to the area where the two sections bolt together. She looks very low too. Can't wait to hear how she sounds !!
Could you take a picture with a pop/beer can for reference to ground clearance ?? Thanks in advance.

That thing doen't move. It has 2 sets of hangers for the rear section. I am not sure I could even get a can underneath my car but I will try it for ya. It is low, no question about it. Tok it out for 2 rides this afternoon and no issues pulling into parking lots or hitting bumps and small dips in the road.
How do you guys feel about running a crossover from left to right with it spread that far apart?

You need to make the H-pipe connection towards the front of your duals. Hope that helps. Pipes look good. For make hp numbers disconnect the pipes where the flange is at as your going to loose power with the extensions.

If you say she's supported then great. Its not easy to see how well its supported from the pics. I did see the hangers in the back. Just was concerned about the stress at the connections.
Anyways when you were doing the exhaust had you considered fabbing your own X pipe ? Certainly looks like you could if a shop could bend/curve two pipes in mirror image of each other and then cut an opening in them where they meet and merge/weld the two pieces together. I hope my words translate my thought. Use your imagination a bit.
Just put that out there since you were talking about an H pipe connection.
