Default first time trying my hood exit exhaust

I just fabbed it up yesterday and wanted to try it out tonight during our street wars.. Best time of the night was 12.1 @ 112 although this pass was a 12.6@ 91.. I missed a gear... The car is a full street car with no weight reduction or anything... Hope you guys like it! Oh and don't mind the "commentator" LOL My wife got really excited!

I can get some up soon... The hood itself is a crappy hood that I got for 30 bucks so it's dented to hell but it was mainly for trial purposes only... I'll get some pics up when I get home...

Damn, you beat me to it... I want to do the same thing, mostly because I haven't seen it done before, but I wanna run it maybe 2 feet higher than that...maybe put a flapper on top...and wrap a junk hood in camo

In for pics of someone who's done it with a wet CF hood. Want to know the best way of doing it to prevent cracking around the cut area....Anybody chime in on that?

Just cut it with a find blade and then make a scuff plate to go around the edges and rivet it on.

What's the story with the crx?? Pics of the Intake Manifold and radiator setup. That bitch looks mean! Anybody know any cars running exhaust taller than that? I doubt you'd get very far on the street before cops take a notice... "But Officer, it's stock, I swear!" Down here they'll give you a ticket for driving with the hood off...not saying it's a good idea, just saying they nit-pick stupid sht.

the CRX was built for the Grassroots Motorsports 2009$ challenge..we won the competion with it this year. it was built entirely for less than 2000$ (FULLY documented)

it took a long time to put the H's on. tons. painted in a garage, hundred of hours of scouring craigslist, HT, Ef-honda, all the other sites for deals, buying parts cars for the motor, piecing together a trans with an LSD, etc.

lots of time, lots of fab work (that header is a MUGEN header that was on a heavily wrecked car and found in a dumpster, and chopped up and re-done). i copied tony1 with the exhaust....and i LOVE it. driving it on the street is hilarious.. tons of flames. car has ran well into the 11's, turns like crazy.
