Default FM prototype exhaust is here!

Elvis just arrived, sporting his new prototype exhaust. I have some video/sound clips I'll put online shortly. It sounds great.

Specifications: 1.5" primaries, not equal length. 2.5" exhaust tubing. 2 metallic core cats, 2 resonators, V-band connections (I think the band clamps in front of the resonators are on the prototype only, I'm not 100% sure there), dual pipes up to a custom muffler that acts as a balance tube. There are removable inserts in the tips to make it quieter. All stainless steel, lifetime warranty.

Pricing will follow once available. We're going to test-fit this set on an NA car to make sure it works on the older shell, then they'll go into production after final fixturing.

That sounds amazing! I will be interested to hear the cost, and any reports on how loud it is on the highway or around town.

No H or X pipe?

I will assume that the muffler acts as the x or h pipe mixing the pulses. Just further down?

Exactly. The muffler acts as the balance pipe.
