Better put some turn down on there. Don't need to heat up that rear end...

Looks awsome. Nice work...

Looks great!

What headers are you running? I bet this system flows very well. And unlike my Pace Setter no crush in the drivers side pipe.

How close is that drivers muffler to the fuel filter and lines? Might want some insulation in that area.

I'm running Pacesetter LT's. The muffler isn't as close to the fuel lines as it looks, but I am going to put some wrap there.

I agree with the post about using turndowns. They also seemed to help reduce the noise level in my car.

I put the turndowns on this afternoon. Here is some pics of the turndowns, ground clearance and hangers.

Looks great!

And that ground clearance is really good too. You must have a stock ride height...

Could you post up or mail me a pic that shows the car from the side. Take if from 20 or so feet back. I want to see if you can see the exhaust system "hanging down" from the lines of the car. I want to see what it looks like If someone was standing on the side of the road and I drove by. I'm really thinking about doing this.. what is the part number of the mufflers you used also?
Thanks

I like the direction you turned the turndowns. Won't be blowing on the tires or differential now.

If the noise level is too high you could make those 3" turndowns into 2 1/2" and probably not lose hp. I did that on a 347 Mustang to reduce noise. ET and dyno was unchanged.

How much bending was required to make the pypes kit work? A friend of mine is interested.

I didn't do any bending. I used my Pacesetter Y-pipe and cut it up so I could hook to the headers. But you could pick up a 90 degree bend and a 4 foot piece of pipe and do it that a way. The Pyes kit came with everything else I needed except the mufflers and hangers.
