I have considered doing this a few times. Please post some clips of the sound before and after. How will you actuate them? I thought of doing a WOT switch. I have started my car with the pipes disconnected after the cats and it sounded like a dump truck. Maybe a resonator instead of just dumps. Looks like a nice install!

A lot of what something like this sounds like is your HP level.

No extra leaks with the 4 added clamp joints?

Nope. I put about 10 spot welds around it so it will not (that was fun laying on my back on the floor) pull apart. At some point if I can get it up on a lift i will weld it all the way around. But right now no leaks.
