I hate the way my car sounds, and apparently, so do the police. (1 warning, and 1 ticket in the 2 days I've had it!) So, I found some posts where people suggest routing it at least 18" back into the downpipe. Where can I get this in stainless? Thanks!

 

I just took mine to a good custom exhaust shop and had them plumb my dumptube back into my downpipe. It looked like this:

 

by the way why are you getting on it around the cops?

 

Something like that would be great. Isn't that a little too close to the turbo, though? I was thinking it would be best to merge it right before where the converter is supposed to be. I'm afraid to go to exhaust places around here. Some won't even work on your car if it doesn't have a converter.

I also did some more searching in the mean time, and people suggested using braided flex sections, which makes sense. The smallest I've found is 1 3/4", and I need 1 1/2". Does anyone know where to get this?

 

That was the first one I did, I made over 350WHP with it, my new one joins the downpipe further down, but I don't have any pictures of it.

It wasn't intentional. Once on the highway, they must have radioed ahead. I set my cruise control when the Ka band on my radar detector went off, but he still pulled me over for having a modified exhaust. I got a warning. A couple of days ago, I just briefly got on it in 2nd. He didn't clock me, but cited me for careless driving on a crowded road, even though there was NO ONE on the road. He must have just pulled up to the light perpendicular to me as I took off. I didn't see him.

How far down the downpipe did you go? I only have a 2.5" downpipe that flares to a 3" exhaust, but it needs to merge before the converter will go during emissions testing. Will this be ok? I'd love to see pictures of your new setup if you get a chance.

Thanks for the pics, btw.
