thats the only sound clip ANYONE has heard..which is why everyone keeps asking for new sounds clips

NLM should be receiving their shipment tomorrow I believe, and I will have it in my possession by friday. If no one posts up videos I will be more than happy to. It will be coming from an iphone 5 though, not a goPro so I won't have any driving clips with it close up to the exhaust like i've seen around the forum.

It's looking like I will have my exhaust tomorrow. Which means tomorrow night I will be installing it. If not Saturday morning but I doubt I will be able to wait that long lol.

Looks like shipping this exhaust is really expensive due to being oversized, Adam at No Limit is working on a solution but be careful when purchasing if you don't know shipping rates.

Just had mine installed and drove it around a bit, local roads, highway, idle, WOT. All in all, I'm really satisfied with the sound. At WOT, it's definitely louder, but idle and cruising around is pretty tame with the silencers on. It does have a throatier exhaust note, and blipping the throttle definitely gives more of a growl, but I don't see anyone getting into any decibel violations with this system so long as the silencers are kept.

I'm going to take them off this weekend to see how I like it that way, but I'm pretty stoked as it is right now.

Any idea on the difficulty level of removing them?

Looks like three 8mm bolts with allen screws on each tip. Should be plenty of room to manipulate the allen screws (on the outside of the tip) without the car's diffuser getting in the way.

Edit: 8MM on the bolt nut and 3MM Allen on the screw. Two of each side are easy to get off, the third on each closest to the inside plastic piece of the car is somewhat of a pain in the ass due to the limited space to manipulate an Allen wrench.

Even so, I got them off in 10 mins. Put them back on just as fast.

good review, but I think more people are concerned with sound without the silencers. I know I am

I'm a creep and saw your car up on FB.. LOL. Looked good from that photo.

You mind snapping a pic of the exhaust with the silencers in? I hate the look of those things... but curious on how it looks with it in.

I just did a quick drive with the silencers off, and it's just too much for me. Some of you younger whippersnappers will probably enjoy it, but I don't think I could personally keep it on in normal street traffic. I really like the sound with the silencers on. It doesn't look as aggressive (I'll upload a pic in a minute) that's for sure. Without the silencers, I'm afraid small animals will crawl up in there

Here's a shot from behind that shows the silencers in the tips:



A quick shot from above shows that the right side is ever so slightly pushed in further than the left. I can probably adjust that, but it's not bothering me (and I don't have a lift or jackstands handy anyway):



Here's one from the side just to see how it fits:



Without the silencers, it's a clean shot all the way through the muffler - you can see all the way clearly to the bend. It's a huge opening. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to take a shot of it before I put them back in place.
