Video Clip: Catless long tube headers w/ Akrapovic

Finally got a video of my exhaust. Some people say the Akrapovic system sounds too timid or tame but I kindly disagree

Car has custom catless long-tube headers from BenzWorks (formerly Hyevon), single x-pipe, no resonators, Akrapovic rear section.

Sounds great.
It's the removal of the cats that increases the growl of the beast.

that setup sounds great !

still enjoying my new , and your old , Carlsson setup with my tune , headers and mids . it's amazing how much a rear section exhaust quiets the car down enough to be tolerated at WOT . the oem exhaust was just way too loud for me .

Picked it up from ACG San Diego (rear section only) for 3thousandsomething, you'd have to check with Peter or James for current pricing. They gave me a great deal though.
