Does it seem a little loud to you?

Something isn't right there. Did you check for leaks?

It does seem a bit louder than others I've heard. Something sounded loose too. Is this exhaust resonated?

Check for leaks or see if it might be rubbing another part of the car somewhere.

1. That rattle is something loose. Could be either a connection or a hanger, check both.

2. There is definately a leak somewhere. Which likely leads back to #1

I see the humor was lost in translation. That is the car coming off the ramps with no pipes hooked up. Essentially headers/cats. I was transferring the ramps to the rear.

Good call on exhaust leak tho

Check under the passenger rear side to make sure that there is no bracket rattling against the muffler. I can to cut away part of the this metal for my CNT exhaust.

vtak is getting installed with the Type-R graphic kit.

Thought I'd have a little fun here with the vid. We've all seen what an F.I. exhaust looks like. Like everyone else says, top-notch, quality exhaust and kudos to Tony for putting out a kick-a$$ product

You know, my first instinct was that he was joking but seeing all the real responses I decided to chime in. My initial thought "no one is this stupid".
