I stole the exhaust off of a 1988 Honda Civic, and welded it on there to make it a little more quiet.

Actually it has dual 2.5" outlets, you just can't see them completely in the picture. It is a hooker catback, I just never put the chrome tips it came with on there. When racing I open the 3" cutout right after the Y merge.

Thanks for the compliment. I needed the agressive looking stance to go with the agressive car. I need to get a nice picture of the bumper dragging this year.

Alot of the auto trans guys can get away with running sub-12s with a 10 bolt for a while...but if you have a M6, might as well start planning now for an upgrade. I broke six 10 bolts before I finally got wise and bought an S60.
