Exclamation

Finally got my buddies cam to do these (it was a quick 2 minutes as I was leaving his place)

While they sound good....
The cam doesn't pick up the deep bass sound that the car has.
its there, but not as prominant as it is if your beside the car. (bass is funny like that, unless you the right equipement)

Here goes nothing:

Startup/Rev


I'll get more later...try and get a more realistic sound.

That sounds great. Is it a twin set up? If so, did you change the rear bumper for a GT one? Also, how easy was it to convert from a Y to an H / X ?
Also, you don't have to answer this, how much did the conversion cost from start to finish? It is something I am really considering doing.


Thanks

James

I am interested as well how it was done and the total price ... single sys or h/x pipe ... I am still discussing this matter with my wife and she says we don't need a better exhaust system ;-)

Of course you need a better exhaust system. A free flowing exhaust system will give you a little better gas mileage, and with the high gas prices.... oh yeah, and there's that other little thing about better sound and more HP.

Sorry guys..didn't even realize there were comments

Thanks for the comments as well....i just wish I could get an accurate sound. If you think they sound good now, you definately won't be let down if you get them.
Where it might hit you is the pocket.

I spent (2 years ago) 460(US) bones + tax for the kit...
it is now 860(US) bucks.

I imported it from the states, had to pay duty etc...

The kit itself is MADE for the V6.
No bumper changes needed, it hangs below.
They also have 'intercooled tips'....which some like..some hate.
It utilizes the Y pipe, and has another Y to split into 2 mufflers and 2 tips.
You can alter that if you wish, and custom it, to be a true TRUE dual.

I think after install (80 bucks)(CAN)
and duty, conversion etc...
It was in the neighbourhood of 800-1000 bucks (CAN)
I saved 150(CAN) by getting it in the states and shipped over....

I've got pics somewhere, and I'll try to get an even better sound clip/video to you guys VERY shortly.
(this weekend hopefully)

Well imagine the german gas prices, about US$ 4.30 a gallon !!!

Thx for the Info about the total costs ! I will check it out when I am in the States again in November, maybe I can cut a deal ...
