Why dual exhaust, other than to have two tailpipes?

Tweaked some of the piping and got it so none of the exhaust is below the trans level, should be good enough. Gas tank should ship next week so I can finish the tailpipes and fuel lines, then the body comes off for hopefully bodywork, and the chassis can be powdercoated and final assembly done.

I was thinking of a set for my car, but I’m not 6’ tall but I am a wide body. So fitting in performance seats is challenge. Those are gonna look so sweet in your car.

So I bolted the sliders and brackets on the drivers seat, and installed it in the car. I'm 6'5" tall and I still have 3" of head clearance, and I don't have to tilt the seats back to gain the headroom. Normally I have to mod the seat brackets to get them low enough for me, but the TMI units are lower right out of the box.

Seats are super comfortable, and feel like they'll hold me in place very well. Super happy with the TMI stuff.

TMI seats looks nice and fit nice, I wish they were a tad softer. All the ones I have installed have been on the extra firm side for me.

You need to gain some weight... They are firm, but not too much so IMO. Actually feels good on my lower back.
