Looks good man but dude, where are you going to drive? I rarely cross bridges and I think the roads are far less than stellar ...

Def looking forward to seeing you at a meet though

yep. a little project i made, still lots to do. its riding way too low. i keep scraping the pipes going over speed bumps. ive hit it so many times it sags really low. so im looking for a good welder to re-do the whole set up.

hahah im not sure where that is actually. just found it to be really funny.
thanks for the advice, ill pm and see what he says.

Uber-
as far as the cut outs, i did them myself. took the bumper off, used a dremel to cut out the whole and sanded it down...its hard to get to be exactly like the stock right side one but i got it close.

i went to whistler over the weekend, bottomed out on the highway, and hit the right exhaust causing it to point up more, with heat and driving, i smelled burnt plastic, turns out it was touching the bumper the whole time, so it melted a bit off around the edge... FML...

ill be getting an alignment this weekend so ill raise the **** up more. speed bumps and i arent friends anymore.

I am actually getting the whole thing redone this tuesday.
right from the catback to resonator its a straight pipe, then the resonator, another straight with a Y where it splits just before the rear axle, and straight pipes out. no mufflers, just the resonator to keep the noise to a min. sounds mint, i love it.

How do you pass air care? Are you tricking your ECU to think everything is 'normal'?

Havent had any issues yet. The cars comes with 3 cats stock.
The muffler didnt do anything but cut down on the noise.
