I'm sure that it has great sound and built with quality in mind, only thing is unless it is mounted at the center of the bumper it may look out of place due to the shape..

I'm curious as well. I was wondering how that muffler would work when used as a center resonator or placed in the pipe between the cat and rear muffler.

Didn't know they were the one's who made it for the Furai... nice on that car, not on ours.

.. and have you heard the Furai? not a lot of "muffling" involved.

Yuri, if you want to quiet your car down install one of the large magnaflow rectangular mufflers in the midsection, that and lose your apex'i N1 dual

That muffler looks like it makes more sense in an rx8.

Although it is pretty cool.

Already running one =)

I'll be redoing all the exhaust after track season ends right now thinking about crazy things to do. Currently leaning towards a side exhaust, yes there is room and yes its radical.

Also, that loud "whirr'ing" noise you hear at high RPM is my old stock clutch-fan setup. Now that I got dual e-fans, I don't hear that anymore, either.
