After adjusting the tips flush with the bumper cutouts today at work I walked around the rear of the car from all angles. Surprisingly, seeing the edge of the exhaust tip next to the top curve of the bumper cutout (they were inset a good 3qtr inch after the install last night) now makes it look like more of a deliberate design element than an effort to call attention to the huge tips. Never thought I'd begin to think 4.5" tips could look "right" |

Anyone want blued tips for their new catback? I have a set on my MXP SP and would love to trade straight for the stainless ones.

Well, it took 3 days, but I'm a convert. 4.5" exhaust tips are fine with me.

Well I just installed this exhaust and it's currently paired with a catless header, an overpipe, ultra quiet front pipe (catted and resonated) and I'd like to share that it is quieter than a Greddy SP Elite axleback. I'd be lying if I said I was a little sceptical that a 70mm catback was quieter than one of the quietest axlebacks, but it actually is. In fact, it's so quiet, I can't really hear it over the road and tire noise in the top half of second gear! Good job CSG!
Install was a breeze, my only suggestion is to take all the rubber exhaust hangers off and switch them over to the new exhaust and not try to leave the hangers on the car and switch the exhaust. Last edited by Jrdad; 08-22-2017 at 06:22 PM. |

Exhaust definitely opened up a bit after a bit, but is by no means loud. Here's a video to help give a better idea.
