As requested here is a quick clip taken this morning for those interested in how the exhaust sounds.

It's pretty cold and this is the first time I've started today so I haven't given it too much. Will post another clip later today possibly to show the idle characteristics.

Enjoy!

Quick pic also taken this morning to show how the tips sit. Some were a bit concerned they may be a bit too low and needed more tucking up.

I'm pretty happy but if you guys think they need to move up I'll see what can be done.

IMHO, the tips are a tad on the small side. Sounds great though...

They look like they hang a bit low IMO but that said it is when looking straight on at the same height, the view from a standing position could be different

I thought so initially but checked today and there's just enough room for my hand to around the top to clean and polish them. So I'm keeping them at that height for practical purposes.

I also compared it to other cars down at the local shops and they look about the same as the other cars so I'll just leave it.

I think they look a little more OEM which is not a bad thing when you can be heard from a block away.

Plus, if I went the 4 inch tips Kieran would get all excited. And I wouldn't want that.. :lol:

I've been asked for a clip of the exhaust from a little distance away as the original was probably a bit too close to the tips. Also the car has been warmed up for this clip.

Enjoy!

Nice sound.

And if you do have no drone at highway speeds they will have done an exceptional job.
