I need something like this but what I have found so far isn't even close.

Thanks in advance.

Chris

Looking really good Gustav! Now we will have 2 more wastegates marks on the floor in the dyno room

Not to speak about the sound when the 2 opens

Should be a nice hearing for the neighbours

looks great! but one question, why is the one dump tube going up and over the other when it looks like it could just go down? or is the subframe in the way?

gaaah... can't make up my mind whether to make a new 4" full exhaust or staying with my old 3".... feels wrong to stay 3" but i don't want to make my ears bleed more than they do when im out criusing..

What to do?

i've done a couple full 4" exhaust on bridgeports and it really wasn't that bad!

as long as there are no exhaust leaks and the muffler exit a little past the bumper it wont resonate and drone inside the car. Outside..... that's another story but who cares!?!?!?!! hahaha
