also.. scroll down to the 2nd post.. by newbie03evo.. under his sig there is the sound clip.. thats the one i mentioned earlier..
Yes that is me.

I absolutely love this exhaust.

When I purchased mine there were no dp's available so I just purchased an espelir (sp) dp. I measured the dp before I put it on and it measured right at 3" where it bolts up to the o2 housing and the tp.

The tanabe tp and catback portion measured 3" on my tape measure.

The sound at wot above 3500 rpms is simply amazing.

The highway drone can be a bit much but it really doesn't bother me.

The fitment was just perfect as already stated and yes in my sig is a short video I recorded with my cell phone so it is poor quality.

Gus,

I agree the sound is great to me at all times.

I expecially like it when some idiot in "you fill in the blank" tries to talk crap about me only adding an muffler.

What tools, I don't even waste my breathe.

Although one day shortly after I purchased it, I was at a local carwash and this order guy in a vette I think asked me if that silver car was mine and went on to say that it looked like it was doing 80 just sitting there.

That was great.

I have this tbe that is damn near brand new if anyone is interested. PM me. I got a AMS 50 trim and their DP wont mate up. Rather not deal with welding on another flange....
