Manzo V2 Exhaust
 
Went for this exhaust because I couldn't pass up the price. Installing as soon as I receive it. Will post some pics and some videos soon! :)

Curious to hear what you think and how it sounds. Keep us posted.

I bought their q300 knockoff and my only complaint is tha the slip fitting joining th emuffler to the midpipe leaks. Nothing an exhaust shop can't fix for cheap. Figment and alignment is spot on too, so I suspect yours should be good as well. I believe these are the same manufacturer as the top speed pro units that other members have tried.

Yes it is, I ended up using an accuseal clamp, fixed the issue for a but. Going to use a band clap next. Needs some stiffer exhaust hangers as well to keep it from shifting around when it's hot.

I am glad you mentioned that. That is something I didn't think about...

I havnt noticed any issue of movement, hot or not.

subbed for a review

Vlady 03-05-2014 02:16 AM

Update: Exhaust should arrive on Thursday. Pumped. I will get her on ASAP and then review time. I am getting a j2 catless front pipe as well. I will do review/video of just the catback and catback + front pipe. Stay tuned

Iand518 03-06-2014 08:06 PM

I'd love to hear the catback under load. Like in a empty parking lot or just a drive by. The exhaust sounds so different under load VS standing still reving in the driveway. Hope you get it soon and I hope everything fits well.

So got the exhaust yesterday and have to say it looks awesome. Nice welds, solid construction, and 2.75 piping all around. Fitment was pretty good but the piping touches the chassis in the rear, however that wont be an issue with some longer torque solutions hangers. OK about the sound. Its deep and loud! A little too loud for my taste actually. If you had to compare this particular exhaust to others it would be comparable to the Topspeed V2 exhaust. The only difference is the piping size (Topspeed being 2.5) That being said the exhaust will be coming off. I kinda want something much quieter. It will be up for grabs in the for sale section. Thanks!

That is why I went with the q300 style setup. Imagine going full catless with that...

Iand518 03-08-2014 11:32 AM

You say it touches chassis? Won't running the longer hangers cause the exhaust tips to not fit as well in the bumper holes?
I live in rural area and ground clearance is a concern. Did any of the piping hang lower than the stock exhaust?

If it's still on, a sound clip would be great.

I thought it sounded pretty good. Probably won't go with this exhaust though, just due to the frame contact concern. I drive some pretty bumpy country road everyday and I don't need my exhaust bumping off the frame constantly. Thanks for shooting video.

I can't hear the exhaust. All I hear is crickets. :bellyroll:

JK...sounds great!

Exhaust does not move at all if installed with the factory hangers. To remedy it touching the chassis you would need slightly longer hangers to provide more clearence.

Vlady 03-11-2014 02:29 PM

Price in the for sale section!

Vlady 03-13-2014 01:52 AM

Update: Will be putting the exhaust back on after week or so if it doesn't sell. Cant stand to see this beauty just sit in the garage plus I heard it will quiet down after more miles are put on it.

CatDaddysBBQ 03-13-2014 01:36 PM

Ugh. I really wish I had the cash. Im sorry!

glorydays 03-13-2014 01:54 PM

Anyone tried the headers?

Vlady 03-13-2014 02:02 PM

They dont look too bad at all. The piping is a little on the small side but hey if you are staying N/A I dont think it would be a problem.
