My Header-Back straight pipe exhaust (video content)

I went back and checked my threads and apparently i never made one for when i got my exhaust all finished up.

Right now, here's what i'm working with (sorry, no take-off or drive-by videos). I hope this helps to influence your exhaust options with low budget.

I paid about $400 total for all the work done, Each black chrome tip cost $60 and i had to leave a "fat tip" to the shop that took off my secondary cats. lol

The video below is about 95% accurate (recorded with iPhone), but it sound VERY similar in person - not much difference.




I'll soon have "block-back" straight pipe exhaust once my MMW headers make their appearance. Soon after, i'll have to experiment with some mufflers/glass packs to bring my dB down (i'm assuming i'll sound similar to a nascar lol)

Sounds angry. So hard to tell though from YouTube videos. None actually sound like they do in person.

I just got a flowmaster hp2 12" muffler. I have limited space between the flange and my muffler in the custom set up. The muffler looks promising in terms of lowering sound. It is not a straight through design like your magnaflows, glass packs and race mufflers. It is two cone cylinders going into a point. Inlet cone is smaller than the outlet I believe or vice versa. You could probably throw two in there. One in each pipe. Check them out.
