ROFL I love the end how your parents start yelling and you run for your cam ahahah classic. can understand what they are saying but probably something like " wth are you doing?! Why are you wasting gas and making loud noises?!" something like that cause i was dong that outside the other day and my dad came out and asked wth am i doing.

I got the rear section and center pipe from Warehouse 55 for $950 shipped.



Catback.

Your sig says you are boosting at 25psi. Thats pretty high. Is that the highest our stocker can go?

I dunno. I'm not sure if 25 psi is high or not since I'm new to this whole turbo car thing. When I was getting the car tuned, the boost peaked at 18 psi, and it peaked to 25 psi with the AMS boost pill.

Ok, update. Got the exhaust installed.... went pretty smooth except getting those damn rubber pieces off the hangers were a PITA! I am enjoying this exhaust. Much nicer, deeper note. Not too loud, doesn't sound like a hollow fart can. I'll get the pics and vid up as soon as I can.

Question for the folks that have experience with new exhausts.... is it normal to have a burning like smell coming from the exhaust? I'm not sure if its normal, or if it is the goop my friend used on the bolts cooking off.

its just "breaking" in. dont worry, its common when you buy a new exhaust.

Ahhhh, nice and quiet. I like it. I'm too old and not in the mood for the fart cannons. Thanks for putting that up. I'm happy to see you mind your mom and pop, its all about respect.
