Post Just Installed DC Turboback

Well i just installed one of the most easy exhaust systems i have ever installed on
a car. The DC turboback exhaust is one of the highest quality made systems i have seen. There are no fitment issue or clearence problems with oil pan or lower braces.

I had the honnor getting a tour of the plant when i picked up my system and all i can say is . DC has one of the nicest workshops, the floors are so clean that you can eat off them, Its nice to see a company cares about the little guys
input.

My system came with a longer downpipe which deletes the CAT. the welds and
Stainless steel is the highest quality, this system is a true 3 inch exhaust.

All of the welds are machined so there is no air flow restriction. I was able to install the exhaust in about 30min.
i fired up the car and went for a spin and wow what a diffrence this is the 1st time i got my rear wheels to break loose on accel .. man what a diffrent car now..

Well all i can say is great job DC Sports , cant wait to get back to the dyno to see the diffrence.

here are a few pics:

Yeah, you should do what CACalomino suggested as one of my friend had done the same thing to his CRX running no CAT but had the heat shield welded over the piping. He was fortunate enough to do that before he had been pulled over. The cop ticketed him for modified exhaust, but not for running w/o a cat.
