Burnt rear bumper foam driving straight piped
 

So with the help of my friend, we took off the muffler on my exhaust to torch my tips for the burnt look. Short story, failed miserably. Took a while and a lot of elbow grease to polish it all off with metal polish and steel wool. Before putting it back on, I took a drive (in Mexico) and did 3-5th gear pulls. Needless to say, it sounded extremely loud and sounded like @ss. It was fun, though. Sounded kinda racecar. The exhaust notes were all over the place. Giving it gas to roll off, it sounded dumb loud n like @ss all the way up to 3k. Staying at 3k, the harmonics or whatever is going on in the piping is sort've quiet. From 3.5k to redline, it's a loud mess. I wish my car would idle like how it does straight piped though. There's this nice aggressive pulsing sound. While under the car to put the muffler back on, we noticed the rear bumper foam piece was burnt probably from the backfire flames and heat. The ricer in me loves backfire so I wish I had a friend record my exhaust shoot fire. Lucky the plastidip saved my paint.
Yes, cool story bro, I know.

Noice

...

only titanium blues when you heat it. and if you like straight pipe, without wanting to feel like a super ricer, get the motordyne e370

:ugh2:

10k HIDs, plastidip, fake CF vinyl and melting your car running around without a muffler. At least you own the ricer label.

:shakes head:

Must have been a long ass drive from NYC to Mexico just to do some pulls. And why Mexico and not Canada? :wtf2:

I would have just went to the drag strip in NJ.

:icon18:

Cause in Mexico, OP is driving the equivalent of a Ferrari! :roflpuke2:

You left out the Lambo doors, and neon lighting :p

If you want a loud straight pipe system. Get the sts system with test pipes. Then you will be screaming FML this thing is loud. Ugh do not miss it one bit.

lol i think some of you guys took this joke thread too seriously. the straight pipe drive was just for fun. we were laughing the whole time about how stupid and shitty it sounded.

stainless steel and aluminum can be burnt as well, not just titanium. look at Ark, Invidia, etc. i got it blue easily but i didn't like it cause it wasn't consistent and even.

the plastidip is just on the front bumper fangs, rear bumper valence, and recently on the the top of the spoiler. the cf vinyl came with the car from the previous owner and is installed in the interior tastefully.

That's the Vtak, Yo!

Why even take the time to do this? Takes less time to boil a pot of rice if you really want rice.

Just? You mean the entire car? lol

Some of us might have a different opinion of "tastefully" ;)

Why? Because y not? Also curious how it would've sounded straight piped.
I think u need to take a closer look. Where exactly did you come up with me plastidipping "the whole car." That isn't white plastidip in the picture, it's clearly the factory pearl white.
I've had no complaints of rice with the interior. I'd agree with you if I tried to fake the funk by putting it on the hood or roof. There's a difference with it in the interior to cover the cheap plastic and pleather knee rests and center console

lol are you guys seriously ripping me that hard for taking a spur of the moment drive with my muffler off?

A spur of the moment drive would be a drive to the park or the mall, not from NYC to Mexico! :roflpuke2:

heehee Exactly what I was thinking, but this makes a little more sense. Maybe not a lot more sense - I have no idea how far OP is from MNY.

Yes, most definitely. :p

ur joking right? lol. that was obviously written so the thread doesn't get locked up. i just ripped it on the highway over a 15 min drive

i figured u guys would know better. people on youtube say their racing in mexico all the time in their descriptions so it's not video evidence for cops or for legal issues

OP, i think everyone here is just giving you a hard time. i think people realize u didnt actually drive to mexico to do some short pulls. we are a pretty sarcastic bunch around here.

pick up these aam short tails if you really like the sound the car was giving u
