Default Took a Video of New Exhaust Finally

Alright so its a little late but i finally got a video up... i dont think to my knolege of anyone running this setup so far but heres the video. Im happy with it i think it sounds nice and deep and throaty

the white balance in the video is shitty but youl get the point

overall the install went very well with the execption of a minor fitment issue in which i had to retighten the clamps several times to get the tips lined up properly... its part of my car ocd ... all was good however

cabin noise is minimal and theres no drone on the highways which is also a plus

overall im pleased with the setup... too bad i dont have a manual trans.

my girlfriend on the otherhand... she fails to see the purpose and claims its pointless... il have work on her a little bit

anyways, here you go... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL_NgDshga4

I think it sounds AWESOME. Not thin and tinny like the ricers and not loud and grunty like the muscle car guys. Juuuuust right.
In my opinion, this is the sound that most of us are looking for. Nicely done.

Here are 2 examples of what I'm talking about:

"Thin and Tinny" Civic that I hated....Click me.

and
.
Violently fast, but not my taste in an exhaust note at all.....Listen around 54 seconds and after for the full effect - Click me.

haha thanks man... yea its a good thick sounding note, i was a little skeptical at first and afraid it would come out too harsh but im very happy with the outcome... thanks

PJTocci... yea it would definatly cause me to rip the system right out if it had annoying fart can drone on the highways, i like to relax on long trips and be able to converse with my friends

What is it, how much, where did you get it, and will it fit a B5?

Its a magnaflow downpipe-back exhaust system and i got it from www.buymagnaflow.com and got it for $822.10 and then installed myself... it wont fit a B5 but you can run a custom set up with a magnaflow resonator and muffler and then just pipe it and youl have essentially the same setup... as far as i know they dont sell one for the b5 but i havnt really looked into it
