3" X-pipe duals w/ Flowtech Afterburner Mufflers (LOUD, mean, metallic and raw)


Same X-pipe with Magnaflow 4x9 ovals. (Less loud, deep, smooth)


Neither setup offered me decent ground clearance (SLP LT's did not help, also the X-junction would scrape sometimes). I switched back to a Y-pipe and catback because I was tired of the low clearance.

^^^^Really?? Those pics must be deceiving then, cause it looks like you've got pretty good clearance in them.

IMJ - The cam swap was $1250 out the door. That included the cam, pushrods, 921 springs (retainers, seat, etc.), and labor. The duals were $450 for the dumped setup and then $250 for the extensions under the axle. Which also included all parts and labor.

kilr12 - 2.5" is more than enough size to handle the power I have / will have. There was no need for 3" which would cost more and give less clearance.

Thanks.

Tips are mounted to the frame. And the car is lowered with the SLP Bilstein suspension, which comes with (specifically tuned for the setup) Eibach springs. Since I ordered the car with the suspension on it, I am not sure how much it lowered it. But I believe its about a 1" drop.

Put in a picture or two with a description of your setup. (pipe diameter, mufflers, cats, headers, etc.)

Also some ground clearance pictures would be nice
Thanks
