Default My Monte's new tone

Well some of you may have known I have been working on a project for my Monte recently. I have been keeping the facebook page updated but I figured it was time to make a thread of the completed project on here too.

I got some OBX Racing headers and a Badlanz 3" electric cutout a couple weeks ago


I also got 6' of stainless 3" pipe, Denso plugs, NGK tr6ix (one range cooler), extended front O2, and Stage 8 locking header bolts. I planned on running the 3" to the first bend and reduce it to 2.5" to hook into what is left of my Magnaflow cat back.

here are the pics.



front

rear

exhaust work after installation of the headers.









on the ground


I was really happy with how well the cutout fit right against the bottom of the car. Almost like it was made for it. I was worried when I got it that it was going to hang way down but it couldn't have asked for a better fit.

I only have a couple videos as of now but here they are.

Open headers right after install
a little more clear video of open headers

Open and closed cutout

that look on your face when you start your car for the first time with open headers

thanks. It sounds way better even when going down the road. I will have to try to do a drive by. I have yet to hear it in person driving away but I have been told it sounds really good
