Hmmm. Maybe. I might be picking up a blem Miltek if its not crazy expensive to get the welds reinforced. I think dual is really the answer (plus will get rid of the parachute effect).

Plus I would need to get my stock midpipe back from @MyRx haha

I've been obsessively (no pun intended) watching this whole youtube series ever since I discovered them last week. Talk about fabrication pron, plus these guys are funny to boot(in a dry/cheesy British humor way)!

Kinda sad to find out that they only release an episode every 6 mos or so, with just 12 episodes since 2013. Goes to show how much work all this is and how quick and easy camera editing can make it look.

Yup, Bob is the only one I know of who is still active around. @vubaru you still around? I know you had an unresonated one a while back.

I remember when I discovered the channel as well and watched the whole series up to this point in one night. Then I was wondering why there's no video with the car done.. until they released the next video lol. Love the series, almost makes it better having to wait for the next episode. The fabrication is bonkers.

I'm going to guess no:

Did you ever have headers on with it or no? Wondering if its super raspy/tinny sounding with less cats

At one point I had my catted JDL UELs on it with a catted Nameless mid/over pipe. It wasn't "loud" in ricer standards, but it was definitely loud for me (grown-ass man who likes to be part of civilized society standard). I can't recall if it was raspy/tinny but it did sound a little off. I later found out that I had a crack on my resonator and had that fixed, which sounded much better after, but that was after I took off the header.

Ya, I had a similar idea of shoe-horning a whole SRT neon running gear I found at a pink-n-pull into a neon ACR I had in the garage one summer. That didn't fair very well... I got about as far as the first 5 mins of episode 1 (tear down) before I realized what I've gotten myself into

One plus I just found out about the Moto Z is that it has a gesture/feature that "shrinks down" the display on the screen for easier one handed operation, which was one of my major issues with all these HUGE flagship phones. Really like the small touches from Moto, I instantly missed them even when using the fancier Nexus 6P. On the other hand, no head phone jack! comes with a USB type C adapter instead WTF?!

I have the OnePlus 3. I like it a lot and I don't think it's that big in the hand. It has really thin side bezels which help. You can check it out on the Saturday drive if you're coming!
