Default Finaly got my new exhaust

Well chris finished it up last night, and all I can say is Cmarsh Fabrication kicks ***. The exhaust fits nicely and sounds very good IMO. Of course the dynatech longtubes help as well. <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0"> While he worked on it with my help here and there I got to help assemble a built motor for a cust's car at AMS <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0"> ; yes I can do some things <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> Tell me what you think of the exhaust.
Thanks again Chris and AMS for the exhaust; and I can't wait to hit the track SAT.

Looks good!
You easily tame the noise a little bit from under the car with the following changes:
remove the turndowns and extend the 3 inch pipe to underneath the rear axle on each side of the centersection and out about 3 inches past. You will need to make a few adjustments but ground clearance will be fine. That will almost totally eliminate resonation underneath the car and fumes as well.
Cheers,
Chris

Forgot to mention the car is lowerred 1.8" with eibach sportlines; so this was the best resolution to the problem of clearnace. <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">

I plan on doing the same after I get my cam in. Looks good! Do you have any brackets up to support the pipes or does it just hang?

There are brackets. BTW it's a 3" setup from the collectors back.

Be careful with the fillings in your teeth. They may fall out <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Looks...er... very "LT1" ;-)

Ya man, I am serious. I have been going to Kinneys exhaust since it is less then a mile from my house but that is getting really damn expensive. They do good work but boy do they charge you for it. Chris will have to do some custom stuff I think. I have a BMR TA that mounts to a brace between the subframes in instead of the tranny. How does he go about the parts, does he want me to buy them off of him or me just buy them and bring them to him? Thanks man
