An you do bring about a very valid point. In our test car we had the top of the tips flush with the bumper opening, I am sure that it will make a slight difference in the drone characteristics of the system. Please give it a try and let us know what you get. |

My tips are flush with the bumper, they may even poke a bit.
Hella-flush exhaust tips?

Well just got done. The bigger resonator FITS!!! And the car is ...... QUIET at idle and cruising ranges of the RPM. It does "WAKE" up when you drive aggressively or nail it. Best of all it has not lost its unique tone and sound characteristics at all under WOT and high RPM's. This larger resonator should satisfy the stealth needs of the older people in here
j/k lol.There is proper clearance for the driveshaft, and it does hang just a tad lower (about 0.5") from the standard resonator, at least it is not the lowest point in the car. civicdrivr: Give me a call tomorrow and we can setup a time if you want to switch to the larger resonator. To all I will let civicdrivr be the judge of the difference in sound and for those that want to get it switched out please PM me for details AFTER civicdrivr gives his feedback. |

I haven't received my exhaust yet and I'm OK with the original design as of now since I haven't experienced it yet. When I get mine installed, if I do not like the sound/drone (if I think there is any), can I request the different resonator after I received the original design or do I have to make a decision on which one I want now?
Is it and easy swap if I did want to change it? Ruskymx |

By the way, how much to install the whole thing if I happen to be in the area this Saturday? Can the stock bits fit in the trunk with the back seat down?

I am part of the first 20 to order this exhaust, is there anyone left that doesn't have their exhaust yet?
I have sent 3 or 4 PM's over the last two weeks with no reply. I understand SRT are busy, would just like a "not forgotten" we have so many to go... these are the ones left to post.......something like that would be great. Cheers.

civicdrvr, if you get yours swapped out we should meet up. I can bring my GoPro and we can try and capture the sound difference. Although I don't know if the microphone can pick up frequencies that low!
At this point I definitely want to get the bigger resonator. SRT, I wouldn't mind coming up there to get it swapped out. I have to drive up with my wife to look at apartments anyway. Would it be better for you if I did that and let you swap out the mid-pipe or would it be better if you shipped me a new part and I ship you back the old one? Thanks |
