Straight pipe my fit! Awesome!

Lent my roomate and friend my car for an afternoon while I was at work so he could clean out the dog hair from him driving to get his GF a few hours away.

Anyways came home to a mini boso pipe replacing the rear muffler lol.

Sounds great, looks awesome (I like it!) and overall made driving my car more enjoyable.

They built it using a vibrant SS 3 1/2 inch tip and a bit of 3 inch pipe with some reducers.

It isnt too loud and the burble/popping while downshifting is cool.



I'm trying to get a video sorted out but my windows movie maker is being a bit annoying and wont see my vidoe as more then 5 seconds long...

^^ VIDEO! Its in 420p. I was lazy on the 1080p lol

Thanks man! A lot of people at first are taken back by the tip being totally out there but most seem to agree it looks awesome in the end!

If I lent my roommate my car and it came back changed in anyway, I'd immediately destroy all of his most expensive possessions/end him. Especially something lame like dat.

Well unfortunately it was done well and not a hack job (sans some spatter on my SS tip i now gotta polish out lol).

I like how it looks and sounds so in the end I think I won! And I could try destroying all his expensive things if I seriously felt the need.

But I rather like my cars coming back to me with silly but cool mods on em.

Like someone said, "Different strokes for different folks."

I'm a firm believe in to each his own, so its good that you like it.

IMO it looks ridiculous, and you should probably be prepared to have crap stuffed in it when you are parked somewhere.

Also, you shouldn't drive it to any bars unless you want some drunk dude to use it as a urinal.

Depending on how your area is this may be a serious concern. Some people like to do stupid shit to other peoples belongings.

I linked the YouTube of your pipe on my Facebook page... If the pipe was labeled as JDM and sold with a large price tag every other kid online would have to have one on their car....

Ahaha! I appreciate you noticing! I had it made by a friend. I did the jpg of ther silhouette and set it to him and he had it cut.



And yeah at coffee car meets we all try and shoot coffee cups the farthest. If you get a big enough cup you can shoot em quite far!

Eh, you're only young once. Can't say I didn't have a strait pipe on my old Corolla years ago, but that was only because the muffler fell off and I couldn't afford a new one at the time. It gets old quick, but setting off car alarms was entertaining.

Love my quiet OEM exhaust. Save the loud stuff for cars that are actually fast.

I can hold a conversation at WOT speaking normally till redline!

The resonator and cat do some serious work on keeping this quiet.
