very nice. should be plenty of fun to drive. sounds pretty good. those mufflers remind me a bit of what I heard from the arvinrode system. just finished it, or was it just a good day to take the camera out. btw how did the passenger hold the camera straight? I would expect them to torque steer that camera :-)

Yeah, I really like this Mac exhaust system. No problems with header leaks thus far. My wife was filming. She has done this too many times before. She held the camera against the dash for support...lol

Great job.
The little details like matching the gauge lighting with the stereo really shows the attention to details.
Should be a lot of fun to play with, and show, this summer!
Congratulations!

Thank you Scott,

I had to go through a lot of trial and error to get the lights and the stereo looking like that. But at night, it is a joy to look at. It is fun to drive, it has an enormous amount of power now but is still very streetable and friendly. Not as friendly on the gas though.

It exits right out the back through those somewhat restrictive trumpets. The exhaust is 2 1/2" all the way back until it hits the trumpet and then it drops to 2". I also opened up the vents on the trumpets a bit.
