Default Pics of my new exhaust setup

Hey guys, I got my exhaust done today! It sounds tight! I went with Aero-Turbine stainless mufflers, kept the oem piping. Since the rear bumper was molded for a dual exhaust setup, I got dual mufflers welded on. The sound is great, exactly what I wanted, a noticeable tone but not obnoxious. Did I get any gains? Well, of course I didn't get it dyno'd, but the butt dyno says yes. It could be all in my head due to the new sporty sound it's got, but it feels like it accelerates a bit harder than it did. I hope that's the case, and I hope the free flowing design gives me a little more mpg as well. Here are some pics:


He's got the piping done and the muffler hung, now he's welding the piping to the Y adaptor.


First muffler done!


Here is a close up of the muffler and double wall, angle cut, oval tip


And here's the finished product, sitting in front of my house


A head on shot from behind, looks good huh?

It's not possible to go true duals on this generation, unless you run a one-off setup. I believe this is because it is FWD, as both headers combine into one collector. The SS is done the same way, single all the way back then splits to two mufflers.
