Just some teaser pics...

[G26]

Thought I would throw up some pics of what is getting installed next weekend.

Its a obx turbo back exhaust, 3 inch mandrel bent stainless, going to have that magnaflow magnapack welded in that straight section.

So far, the quality looks great, welds are all good. The gaskets are fucked up from shipping, but I am having my friend install it at his exhaust shop, so I'm sure he has new gaskets.

My only real complaint, is the turbo to dp flange isn't perfectly flat, but that can be fixed at the shop.

Nice, looks like sexy sound is on the rendez-vous.

Have fun with the install.

BTW OP, get some exhaust wrap and take care of the DP before you put it in.

make sure you drive without the resonator welded in first. I pretty much have the same setup (catless,but UR cbe and TP)...I thought I would try UR resonator to quiet it down a bit but it got too quiet. Your resonator is a lil longer but narrower so it might not absorb as much sound and suit your needs, but I would still run without it first to make sure...ONLY thing you will not like is cold starts but you will love everything else.

also, you dont need to wrap shit but you might want to use a short bung for the 02, but I think you know this

Nah, im definitely having him put the res in, I'd rather have it quieter than louder to be honest.

Why would he need to put exhaust wrap on the down pipe? Looks good though!

Yeah, no wrap, But i am also having him weld in a short bung for the 2nd O2.

[specvspeedfreak]

I know what you mean , but it's not as loud as people think..i have feeling it will better than a UR resonated TP though, since its narrower and probably wont absorb as much..good choice on the setup

Where'd you buy it from?

Downpipe is from ebay, OBX CBE is from ERZ performance on here, and magnaflow muffler is from summit racing.

Having my friend from american muffler install everything next sunday. He is welding a short o2 bung in the dp, fixing the flanges, giving me new gaskets/hardware, welding new stiff hangers on, putting the magnaflow in, and maybe burning the tips blue/gold hehehe.

Good to have friends in the car world.

I live in miramar, wheres your boys shop at?

[Dmurray06]

That is pure SEX

[Toymachinespeed]

So that's a long catless downpipe? Link?

By the way I have the OBX catback and that's it and it sounds amazing! It's only going to get better with the rest of the exhaust upgraded. You are going to love it! Trust me!

What year is your pu?

Calm your tits bro...

I was on my phone so i couldnt see his sig..

UR cbe and dp is not obnoxious, you can defiantly but not to the point where it gets annoying. It opens up nicely at WOT. I agree tho, id drive without the resonator first to see how you like it, if not then weld it in.

[Jake5713]

Looks good man

Not a bad idea to try it out first w/o the res, however if he just wants a nice deep gurgle w/o the drone putting in a res is a good idea. I love my setup (UR dp, tp, obx cbe) but the drone when slowing the car down can get pretty fucking annoying!!! Although I can live with it b/c I love everything else about the exhaust. Feels good when people can hear you coming even when you're not going WOT. Oh yeah and cold starts when its 30 degrees out are ridiculously loud, I'm sure my neighbors hate me.

[Cornjacked]

Without the resonator highway driving gets annoying quick. Since Cory takes expressways on the daily, id say its a good idea.

[G26]

This be the mothafucka thats going to install it ^

[YABBAMZR]

would love to hear a video when you get it on.

looks good man
