*A Few Pictures of my New Exhaust Setup For my 2000 WS6* Here are a couple shots of my new exhaust setup. I have been gathering these parts over the last 2 months, and it's finally time to put them on. I am having everything installed this thursday, the 6th. I am also getting an EFI live tune at the same time. I am pretty excited about all of this, it's my first round of mods, and I am hoping to feel a big improvement. Curruntly the car only has a lid and SLP loudmouth on it. I deciceded to go with a "magnamouth" setup on the car, to reduce rasp and noise when the E-cutout is closed. FYI, for those of you who don't know what magnamouth is, it is when you replace you loudmouth bullet with a quiter magnaflow bullet. Here is a break down of the parts. Headers=Hooker, Off road Y pipe=Texas Speed, Electric cutout=QTP, Bullet Muffler=Magnaflow, Exhaust Tips=Corsa clones
Just FYI, this setup will not work. We tried it and the cutout hangs way too low and needs to be mounted right under a small indentation under the rear passenger seat. Since you have to move the cutout back further, that means there is no room for the bullet muffler. I took this to a shop, not an exhaust shop, to get this done and tied into the old catback. UNfortunatly he couldn't install anything but the headers and y-pipe, so I can't drive my car until I can find an exhaust shop willing to bend up an exhaust from the end of the y-pipe to the exhaust tips. This sucks, because the car has no cats and no-one will touch it, so I have been car-less for the past few days. It's way too loud to drivem, I would immedietly get pulled over in it. I'm in a shitty situation! It's my one and only car.

Well, after over a week of searching and fumbling aorund for someone to finish this thing, I finally found someone yesterday. They finished it up early today and I am extremely happy with the results. The new setup goes a little like this: Headers into ORY into small section of 3" pipe into E-cutout into a factory style setup over the axle 2.5" into a magnaflow single in dual out to the corsa clone tips. The shop did a great job on it and I have absolutely no clearance issues wth it. With the cutout closed "To Me" it's super quiet, just a little louder than the factory system. None to little rasp and drone when closed. When you open the cutout, it's extremely loud and beastly sounding. It sounds pretty mean! You do get some rasp and drone but nothing that bothers me. It's the best of both world, I can have it extremely comfortable and quiet at one moment, and the next have it screaming down the road. Here are a few pics, not that great, but the best I can get without putting it on a lift. Sorry about the car being dirty, it has been raining most of the day. The last pic is just to show where I mounted my E-cutout switch.
Here are some sounds clips. I will try and get some flyby's later next week.

The y-pipe merge doesn't get installed the way you have it on your floor. Check out this picture off of the TSP site:

Other than that looks like a good plan.
