The idea of adding an exhaust was a natural one. To gain more power, you need to relieve backpressure. Only mandrel bent tubes will do and there aren't a huge list of choices. I chose the Borla over the Greddy and HKS for a couple of simple reasons. Costwise, the Borla is the cheapest. Lookswise, the Borla is the most understated.

BEFORE:
Yes, I have some exhaust sounds! Actually I've had the sounds for a while now, but only recently got around to updating this page. The sounds were taped during the dyno shop meet of the SCPOC back in October.

Here's a shit picture of the stock exhaust tips. Very plain looking tips indeed, but not unattractive.

The exhausts were recorded by putting a compact recorder about four inches from the muffler tip when the cars were on the dyno. You are listening to 4th gear pulls from about 2000 to about redline in both the before and after.

AFTER:
Images were scanned, expect some to be posted soon.
