Outcome

You forgot to tell us how many gazillion horsepower you gained. Actually, my guess is that this system will slightly DECREASE the in town gas mileage but possibly increase wide open throttle by about 10-14 HP.

Well, actually my mpg increased, for about 5%, the problem here is that when you install a new exhaust the sound gets you crazy and you start reving all over the city and mpg decreases. Im not that kind of driver. The increase in the mpg must be because of the cat delete and a free flow exhaust.

Some people told me that the ceramic coat will make my engine bay colder, so my mpg will decrease... so maybe if i hadnt coat my headers... the mpg will be increased for around an 8%.

I didnt dynoed my car before this mod, so i will never have the stock parameter, and I wont install the oem exhaust again.

But i do have my 1/4 mile times. Maybe this weekend ill see if this helped. it must

I spend:

BORLA 180 USD
HEADERS AND CATBACK 600 USD
CERAMIC COAT 100 USD
TAIL PIPES 120 USD

Looks awesome and super clean! If I continue work on my exhaust, I'll probably try and do something similar but have the AMG exhaust that I have now.

BTW: Do you put a bumper lip on the rear and cut that or did you actually cut the stock bumper? I'm debating on either getting an AMG bumper or the lip. How'd you get the cut so clean as well?

Its the OEM, it was a dremel cut... the exhaust shop made it too. I am thinking in adding a new rear lip.

Daddy Likes! Sounds really close to what my car sounds like. Are you sure that's not a AMG?

Good stuff- thanks for posting

Super sexy sound! I need to recondition my exhaust as there are some leaks in the midway. Do you happened to have the design document for your custom headers? Any other mod plans on the car? Nice ride!

My Car has already:
Evosport underdrive pulleys
Gruppe M air ram intake
Upgraded throttle body (68mm stock, now 72mm from a m113 engine)
Needwings catch can

Soon ECU & TCU tune by Eurocharged...
Maybe im also installing the m113 inyectors, pump and maf (some guys say is not necesary but well see)

Hopefully next year I have the chance to install kleeman or shrick cams.

Just for fun
