And something really cool I learned yesterday, the 'longer' the joint/bridge in the X-pipe the higher pitched the sound

This system 'should' sound insane ... stay tuned

Default Sideways X-pipe

Titanium is WAY sexier than SS but glad to see others doing "sideways" X-pipes on their cars! Can't wait to see and hear the finished result!

But now I'm looking at Granatelli exhaust cutouts for my car... I blame you! Haha

Do your valves bypass the mufflers and the X-pipe or just the mufflers?

LOL ... thanks Ty, I seem to have that affect on people.
There are a LOT of wives out there that disapprove of me as I assist their husbands (friends) in building their car or 'selecting' a new car

Ty, no my valves bypass the buffers when open AFTER the X-pipe ... so headers through race cats to X-pipe and then straight down and through the outside tips

Near done, will be listening to the glorious music this aft ... stay tuned

Default Dual Tips look AMAZING!!

Man, those dual tips are SEXY!

Thanks for the info... it may be easier to package exhaust cutouts after the X-pipe on my car and run them parallel to the trailing exhaust.

Default A little Ferrari fun

Love the fab and welding work
I am doing my exhaust on my Dodge pickup
Welding is really bad but I figure that practicing
on an old crappy truck is the only way I will get better

Can't wait to hear it

Bob

and and the exhaust looks incredible.
