Ultimate Racing Exhaust Installed

I received and installed my Ultimate Racing Axle Back Exhaust yesterday and it sounds great... Car feels a little more responsive and maybe a little, tiny bit more powerful... the install was really easy but it's a really tight fit... I had to use my hip to push as hard as I could to get the passenger side hanger bolt in... but after all that pushin it is more solid than the stock exhaust and fits better too... it kinda stinks but I think that is just the stuff burnin off the pipes... I'm gonna take a look at it to see if it is touching anything but I didn't see anything touching yesterday... The tip is very nice... it fills the exhaust cut out pretty good... it's loud but not like a bunch of bees... more of a rumbly noise... and if you let it rev high and then let off the gas it sounds awesome... I will take pictures tomorrow...

Do I need to reset my ECU?

Check out www.z1auto.com
This is where I ordered it from and it was cheaper than buying it from Ultimate Racing and Adam is a really cool guy...

Way to go. How does it compare to the popular Magnaflow a lot of guys buy? I have the Mag and am really happy with it. Nice deep tone. Enjoy.

It uses the magnaflow muffler... so it probably sounds the same... I just wanted something different than the usual...

Actually the smell was the exhaust cooking my rear lip... it melted and I had to cut a chunk off... there is still some plastic boiling on the tip... but it's not noticable... it just melted the underside where the cut out is... I cut it out with a dremel and you can barely tell... I had to add a small hanger to use as a spacer to push the exhaust over about a 1/4" so it wasn't touching the bumper... but it sounds good... and no matter what anyone says I feel some top end pull... I didn't have time to take any pics...

Ahh, yeah because I can't find it for anything on that site. It looks good though! And I have to buy something quieter because the A'Pexi and my kamikaze headers hate each other. And make angry bee noises.

If you go to Ultimate-Racing and look under distributors you will see them... You have to call and talk to Adam... I'm the first one with a RA to buy from them...

You bought it from www.z1auto.com? I know I'm not the first one to have it but he said I was the first guy without an evo to buy anything from him... and I don't really have the capabilities to shoot a decent video and post it... still have the old Hi8 camera...
