There is a huge exhaust shootout coming out in TPP Magazine in the next month or so. I think there were 25 systems tested, after reading it you will be glad you chose us for your exhaust needs.

What's TPP magazine? I want to pick up a copy.

RMR SUCKS!! Very poor quality. Cracks in under 15k miles and very poor customer service.

Just got the Blitz Nur Spec R exhaust installed about a week ago. I don't know if anybody else has discussed this exhaust, but its great. Although some of Blitz's other exhausts are REALLY loud, this one has a nice deep, throaty tone without the silencer and if you think its too loud you could always put the silencer in, at which point it's not much louder than stock. The whole system is perfrect, all stainless and well put together. All in all a great piece.

Oh, btw, I forgot to say that this is the US spec exhaust and more than clears the rear bumper...

No...sorry I don't have any, and I have no idea where you might find one. Its a relatively new exhaust to the market so I don't think that there are many sound bytes.

TPP is Tuner Performance Products. It is put out every quarter. I will try and find out where they offer them and how to get them. I'll post later.

I have the information. It is TPR, Tuner Performance Reports. I screwed up, too many things to remember

Anyway, it will hit the stands in 2-3 weeks, the magazine is at the printer now. The basic review will be printed on their website at www.tprmag.com

You can also find the magazine on the newstand at:

Barnes and Nobles
Krogers
Publix

I have not read the magazine or seen the actual results, I have only heard how we did in comparison. They tested somewhere between 15 and 25 catback systems.

Take care,

My review of the AMS 3" catback. I installed the exhaust last Friday night, and it was a pretty painless install (my first Evo mod and the first real mod I've done to a car in at least 10 years). Removing the stock exhaust was a pain to do since I was doing it by myself and that thing weighs a ton!

Reinstall was a breeze, but aligning took a little bit of work, again because I was by myself.

Initial driving impression was, WOW, this is louder than I expected. Since then, however, I have gotten used to it and the only time I really notice it is in parking garages. Also, it seems weird, but the exhaust doesn't seem too loud under full throttle pulls (which are quite addictive now!), only when under normal driving and off boost acceleration.

Another surprise was how much the exhaust expands when hot. I tell people my
car had a penile implant when I show them the exhaust after driving

I would highly recommend this exhaust and had a great experience purchasing it from Diesel.

David, I've been searching all over. Do you have any pictures of your jdm style exhaust from the back? I don't want like a 2ft away, I mean like a good distance at car height.

I believe that on Buschur's website, it states that they no longer offer the JDM-style catback.

With that being said, would you recommend your 3" Muffler Delete or 3" Cat back with your 3" turboback system?

David,

How much do your turboback systems run for these days with a magnaflow muffler?

Ahhh I see. Are you just not making the angled exhaust or the straight tip?

What I'm trying to say is I'm looking for a non slash tip exhaust. Preferably, I'd like to pick up your cat back, but if I can't get the non-slash tip, I'm going to have to look else where
