i REALLY want to hear this when it's done. I have true duals with magnaflow bullets. And you can drive around with open headers. I did it for a week straight putting about 40 miles a day on it. you just really have to keep your eyes peeled for cops and never go over 2000k rpms. Trust me its def. possible.

The crinkle bend did not bother me one bit. I actually wanted the car to be as quiet as possible when the cutout was closed. I actually chose to do the "crinkle" to restrict it a little more and quiet it down. I also chose to go from the 3" to 2.5" after the cutout. The whole goal, after I had to abandon my firt setup, was to keep it as quiet as possible with the cutout closed and as loud as possible with it open. It flows just fine when I want it to, and as far as restriciton goes, there isn't much when I have the cutout open.

i used those magnapacks on a dual setup for my s10 and i hated them. Wonder how it would have sounded on your car if it all would have worked out like you originally intended.

I am not sure if I am just seeing it wrong, but is your O2 extension sitting on the top of the collector on your driver side header? If so you are going to burn through that cover VERY quickly. When I installed Hooker Super Comps on my last TA I had to route the wires around the front of the header since the O2 bung was on the outside of the headers. Sorry if I am seeing this wrong.

Setup looks nice, BTW.

It looks like it is, but it is actually just tucking straight up from where you see it. It's not going over the header or tuching it. Although it sure looks like it from the pics. Fooled me too, I went out and looked at it.

As soon as it quits raining here, I get some clips of it. It's been raining for 3 days straight.

i really want to hear this set up. ive been thinking about swapping in a magnaflow bullet on my loudmouth and i would have really loved to hear the way that sounded but might end up doing the exact same set up you have with the cut out. cant wait to hear it and decide if i want to go that route.

I absolutely love the pistol grip! This grip allows me to slam gears like crazy! I just wished it was wraped with something to make it a little softer.

It looks like a nice car. Do you bring it to Indy often?
