Magnaflow metalcore cat, no resonator just the 5x8x18 canister magnaflow in the back.

EDIT: my doors are closed in the in-car shots. Seems quieter but again it could just be the camera. This is my oldass pointnshoot sony.

I think it has everything to do with the mic being used. I just can't see his exhaust being louder than yours Timmah.

Someone should try that one out. $45 is cheap! On another note, my f1 stage 2 clutch is starting to slip after the addition of this exhaust system. It was rated for 290tq which I would assume would be at the flywheel right?
Anyone care to take a guess at my power level from that roll on vid?

FM happy meal here I come.

Another quick question, is that bar on the left hand side of my rear suspension supposed to be bent like that? I just noticed it.

I'm planning on buying one soon, once I get my car running well again.

I've heard bad things about the F1 stage 2 clutch, It's the Kevlar full face one right? I'm pretty sure if it gets overheated once its pretty much toast. read here--> How to choose a clutch material

Would highly recommend muffler for stealth-ness, car was loud as hell before with nothing.

All that can be heard now is the turbo. Only downside is its ------- huge.

I drove with an open waste gate for nearly two years,

proud moment......

Id literally get fuel and soot everywhere, stain the edges of the hood, headlight lids, spots on the windshield

would not recommend but live-able if you have no spare time whatsoever and sleep when you do



unsafe ect, I have a fire extinguisher and my special helmet in case I fall while running away from my engulfed in flames Miata

Except for when I ride the bus, it gets in the way when I lick the windows.
