We spend considerable time and effort during development to achieve remarkable civility when idling and cruising at part throttle, while also producing a war-cry wail when full throttle is applied. Sophisticated, refined, and powerful, all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe spent considerable time examining how to maximize the performance and options of this exhaust system. The factory exhaust consists of a long downpipe with two catalytic converters, and two rather large mufflers in the section after the cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThorough long term street testing has confirmed that our high flow downpipe will not set a Check Engine light or any fault codes in the ECU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere are some features of our system. Each feature was chosen for performance and longevity reasons, and when making your exhaust decisions you should settle for nothing less:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully mandrel bent tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable with Round tips in Chrome Silver or Diamond Black Finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThick .065\" wall T304 stainless steel tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully lined stainless steel flex joint in downpipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel internal muffler and resonator construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel MIG and TIG welds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel T-bolt clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble walled exhaust tips to reduce heat discoloration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded OEM turbo to downpipe gasket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn house dyno developed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe catback system is topped off with your choice of 102mm Slash Cut Tips available in Chrome Silver or a luscious Diamond Black finish.
