Buschur stage 1 installed with pics

Took some pics of my Buschur stage 1 install today. Everything is on and ready to be tuned by Al next Friday at Buschur's shop. Can't wait!

Exhaust turned out to be somewhat of a task today. We took it to my uncles shop to install on the lift. This made the job much easier, as it would have been a real pain to do this on our backs

Downpipe comes pretty close to the tranny. We adjusted the hangers as best as we could. Still a little closer than I would like. I think I am going to install some motor mount inserts, just incase. So far it is not hitting, but these mounts only have 2k miles on them. Anyways, here are the pics.

Feels great! The exhaust made a huge difference in driving. Seems much more responsive now.

I also recorded the car stock and after installing the exhaust. Hopefully I can post the clip up sometime tonight or tommorow. It sounds awesome. Just right IMO.

My exhaust used to look that shiny Buschur stage 1 has got to be about the best bang for the buck out there. Congrats on the setup and have fun!

I'm shocked that people on here are talking trash about Buschur products. Where have you all been the last 3 years?? I've had buschur stuff on my car since 2003 and it's as good as it gets. The perfect mix of price and performance. If you are going to have people looking under your car all day, then buy a WAY overpriced carbon titanium pipe. If you want absolutely PROVEN quality for the best price, then it's gotta be Buschur all the way. Dave Buschur and Co. are among the most respected builders, fabricators and racers in the entire Evo Community (and long before that in DSMs, etc.)... What else can I say?

Joke's on you, I'm only 14! Also, what's up with the welds on Buschur's hand-built manifold?

They look eleventy billion times better than that muffler does.

So does that mean their personal cars get all the workmanship and their customer cars get the rushed versions?

Well I guess whoever buys them doesn't have a problem with the way it looks, and certainly not with the way it performs. Poor Girlie... just wanted to show off her new toys...
