Lovin it Corey! Let's see some cruising vids......

I know you probably posted it before, but what mufflers did you go with?

Was it u Cory that got the exhaust kit? Everything is bent and all u have to do is cut and weld?

Can't wait to see it on the road!

i didnt but the exhaust it came new in the box when i got the car. its the JEGS header back dual 2.5" kit with thier mufflers its basically summit turbo mufflers. they make the kits for G3's its $210 and i have short flowtech headers.

i had a lot of dirt in the exhaust though as it was installed on the car in like 2007? and has been on there dropped from the headers until this month so there is a lot of crap in it and moisture looked like a diesel on the first rev now it clean though its not the motor lol

I don't know, just guessing, but it looks to me like with the wheels drawing air forward and the motion of the car pulling air rearward there MIGHT be a chance of exhaust gases working its way inside the car with the tailpipes cut off in front of the axles. JB

I've been in cars with the exhaust done like that, with Flows and glasspacks. I don't recall smelling exhaust in the cabin- but that doesn't mean there wasn't CO getting in. However, we usually cruised with the windows down so that was never worried about.

The main thing is that it will increase the noise inside the cabin. If you ever heard the Flowmaster drone on a full length exhaust, doing this will be louder than that.

I could not stand the noise at 65 MPH, you could not even talk without holloring. I finally broke down and put resonators at the very rear of the pipes. JB

yea ill just leave it i hate drone

One thing of concern when dumping the exhaust right in front of the rear axle is heat. I'm guilty of dumping exhaust & I've never personally had a problem, but when I was going through ASE Cert. that topic was brought up & a very good point came from the instructor: "The heat from the exhaust would blow right onto the axle. If you end up cruising for a good length of time, it can cause the axle to heat up & break down the grease inside. Once the grease breaks down it's only a matter of time before something goes boom...." To me that makes sense so if I ever dump again, it will have turndowns or will kick out to the side.
