Now you can sell the Kooks over the axle section and ofset some of your costs.

That is a real nice setup. It's too bad you had to modify the Kook$ dual system to tame it down. I think half your problem is your motor though. That thing is a beast so most of the exhaust solutions for us may not necessarily apply to your combo.

Omg, you cut up a kooks TD system?!?! You did a great job but that's an expensive system to cut up. Where did you get that merge/Y ? Looks nice. Is it stainless?

It is a Vibrant and is very well made out of stainless....everything in this system I now have is stainless.

I didn't want to cut up the kooks TD but honestly the system sucked and I hated the car with it. The HP difference is not enough to make much difference that I can tell.

I own a professional business and almost every time I'd pull into the employee parking lot there are clients I drive past in the customer lot. Sometimes clients are coming to us in a time of great sadness. The way the car was with kooks TD it left a bad impression on non car people, so I wasn't driving it.
