Finally got an exhaust on!
Okay guys, so i FINALLY got an exhaust. The car runs & sounds so much better now.
Here are some pictures that i snapped:
And also i took a video, sorry for the shitty sound quality. It sounds a lot better in person.

There were no survivors
Its design is very close to my JIC, except for the fact the Y pipe is the resonator on mine. I have no idea how mine sounds from the outside because the only time someone has driven my car without me I only had the catback on. Now I have RB headers and a not-purposely hollowed cat that's wrapped.
You bringin the wip out next weekend?

actually sounds good. I've heard of them before.
I guess it's that presilencer or whatever you call that makes it sound better too.
I've heard them catless/presilcenerless. - 'can'ish' sound.
I like
Here's mine

SSautochrome has some good deals. I have the same exhaust.
I kept getting pulled over with no silencers in, but have been running with just the left one in with no "polissues".
Did your left tip hang lower than the passenger side?
looks good.

yeah, the reason i asked is that my tips never exited evenly either.
I ended up taking the rubber bushing out and twisted 12 gauge copper romex wire to bring the tip up further.
That was a year and a half ago.............with no related issues.
or you could do it the right way by cutting a section out of the left exhaust hanger (about an inch and a half ) and reweld it. That would enable you to use the stock bushing.
30 seconds twisting wire, with no rubber bushing bind (that would be more prone to ripping) just made more sense to me.
good luck, what ever you do.

hey glad to see something new on your seven...looks clean and it sounds pretty good for a non-well known brand. personally i prefer quieter exhausts, but its not like you do anything to where you need to run and hide lol

Yeah i was thinking about the wire thing. i had a buddy that did that to his as well. i might end up doing it if it gets on my nerves to much.
More videos tonight guys, with better sound.

Ok, so when some dude asks about buying this exhaust, the forum gives him crap and calls him and everyone who bought it and idiot.
A pretty girl buys one and all of a sudden it's such a cool exhaust that nobody's ever heard of?
It is a nice exhaust, and they all seem to have been made crooked. I think the previously given solution of "go to a muffler shop and have them cut and re-weld at the front Y-pipe flange" would be the best bet. I was going to do that before I decided to sell mine.

And i dont think it's just about me being a female... a lot of the people who have posted in this thread are my friends. lol.
And i've decided to just tie it up more with some wire.. i dont have the money to have it re welded. Doesnt really bother me any.

Though maybe more people will now realize it is a good exhaust. I like it more than the Apex'i I had. with the silencers in it is very livable.
I alos fixed the pictures on my original post on the exhaust https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/motoria-dual-exhaust-ssautochrome-review-614191/. I remember when I bought it new it was only 325 shipped. Now it's a lot more. Anyone want to buy mine? lol
