Default My New Custom DP and a little donut vid

Just got my car back from the a local shop (Modern Automotive Performance)
where they made my new downpipe. Its a work of art. Just beautiful. Looks like a monster shrimp.

I will get better pics later. Its 3" to 2.5" v- band, two piece.

Nope. It says it's a private video. Try adjusting the permissions on youtube.

because i have a 2.25 catback and it would be impossible to mate a 3" to a 2.25. I am going to get a 2.5" exhaust tho soon.
