My Custom 2.5" Straight pipe! Thoughts?

[Low&Slow]

Hello everybody! Just wanted to have your guy's though on my 2.5" custom Straight pipe from cat back. I haven't seen a post about this and wanted to post it up incase anybody wanted to hear what 2.5" piping from cat back to 4" tips sounded like! Sorry if the sound quality is not great, i had a crappy camera to film with that day, as well for the shaky camera. Also had to use my ipod to take pictures with.. lol

Looks great from the end, sound like a beast!! Any photo from underneath?

I literally laughed out loud when it first started it up. It's ridiculous and I love it, but only for race application. I plan on something similar later on when my car is a dedicated track rat.

Thanks!, and as a matter of fact, i do! Again, sorry for the bad image quality, it was taken from my ipod.

Here's with the cat and resonator off


Here's where I curved the piping to the Y output. (After the curve it's just straight piping)

That seems really inconvenient to blow out your ear drums every time you want to start the car cold.

Kinda like the noise at 3:30 in a ridiculous way. Not for me but....interesting.

Looks and sounds sweet. Nice work man! Did you notice any hp improvements with that? Do these cars need backpressure to keep the hp or is most of that pressure created in the stock header? Your system would sound insane with a UEL setup.

Got me scared in the begining. Nice exhaust, I like loud but I think that's way too loud for me haha.

Thanks man! It seems to have more power in the higher rpm's. Haven't gotten the chance to get her on the dyno yet though! I'm not too sure about the back pressure in the stock header, but i do plan on getting UEL headers soon! Thinking if i should make a member's journal. lol

Thank you! And, driving with this exhaust on a daily basis; it's not that loud! Surprisingly at a settled speed, it sounds like a muffler delete, if not, quieter. But i love this exhaust!
