Too bad that will be under your car where nobody can see it.

That exhaust is really nice man. Fits well with all of the other high quality stuff going on. I need to see this thing in person one of these days.

The Getrag diffs are a little tricky to sneak 3" piping past, I just did this on my NB before MRLS and it turned out well, but not this pretty. Your fabricator is definitely more skilled than I am.

The way the level is placed in the last pic makes it look like the car is upside down... Or is it? Maybe that's how they were able to make it look so good!

He definitely has skill...a few more with the trans mount and other various shots

Looks great!

what are you doing for underpan and radiator shrouding. A must in florida or any track day.

TonyMontana 02-01-2018 10:03 PM

More progress...exhaust tip being made and final look. Getting closer

Because

borka 02-01-2018 10:11 PM

You doing dual exit exhaust? One with electric cutout and other after muffler?

Not sure yet...may have him fabricate something for me...need something for my oil cooler too under the bumper...ducting will be a project.

18psi 02-02-2018 02:16 PM

excellent work. and I personally absolutely love that cutout

2010 WRX Limited 02-02-2018 02:57 PM

This thread delivers. I like the cutoff too. brap.

TonyMontana 02-05-2018 09:10 PM

Almost there... a little more welding and making a vacuum reservoir for the valve. Plan is for 3 exhaust modes...full straight, full muffled, and variable which will be programmed through the megasquirt/MAC solenoid. I love the way it looks.

This makes a lot more sense now. I was wondering why you were just plugging the exhaust when it's closed lol! Looks freaking awesome, can't wait to see the end result.

Scaxx 02-05-2018 10:15 PM

Yeah I was pretty puzzled by that one as well haha, looking forward to hearing it!

Cool!

18psi 02-05-2018 10:54 PM

Can’t say I’ve ever seen it done like that before, neat.
Though wouldn’t one of those varex mufflers do the same with Way less work?

ooja3k 02-05-2018 11:13 PM

Great looking work!!
