^ System is great after a year. This is my second complete exhaust setup and I know I'll never have to change it again with the quality. I have scraped a few times now, this is the biggest downside with TD's on lowered cars.

After reading everything I could on the set up I figured everyone was still happy with it, thanks for the reply. Big bonus you pointed out about never having to replace it again, definitely compounds that the longer a person keeps their car.

How low are you, mine is on BMR in the front with heater hose in the rear.

Great looking car in your sig, I bet you can't wait to get the true duals in. Why wait till spring, sounds like a great winter project ?

Thanks BrntWS6, sounds like I will be fine then with the BMR springs.

Thanks man. My car is being stored at a location where I can't work on it, otherwise yes it would be a perfect winter project. And I also plan on going with BMR springs.

Ordered everything during the black Friday sale, just waiting for the x-pipe to come in from kooks. Got the headers, BMR relo, and MWC loop yesterday. Going to be a long couple days on my back i have a feeling!

Looks like he has the newer kit with the shorter mufflers which should make for a little less tweaking.

I've had both already. Kooks was cool to work with me when the "original" design fit like **** and replaced with the new version....

New version fits better due to adjustability, however....tips are still too long for camaros (IMO) and still have rubbing issues in places.

Well that seals the deal for me then. I wasn't sure if I was going to do the single 4" or the Quads with my T/A, but if the tips are now separate, quads all the way!
