Was looking for a camber kit and found this forum so I joined up. I'm a Benzworld.org extremist. So I'm not exactly new, Just new to this forum.

Hi D O
Welcome!
I see you are a Jersey driver, and they say all the SEC's are on the left coast!
Good Luck

Added a resonator to the exhaust. It quieted it down a bit and took all the rasp out.
here's a new vid of the exhaust.

first coat was a paint made for bar-b-q grills it sticks well and holds up nicely. Very high temp. second and third coats were 1200 degree High temp paint. So far it's holding up well. No burning as far as I can tell and I run this car hard. It of course wouldn't work on a cat. That would be the grill paint which comes only in flat colors. I used only 2 coats of grill paint for the exhaust manifolds because the 1200 degree wouldn't hold up to those kind of temps. When I get my twin turbos later this year, I'm having the manifolds that they are coming with powder coated.
At which point, I will completely redesign the exhaust for mandrel bent stainless full dual exhaust with quad rectangular tips and Flowmaster hushpower II' mufflers. This exhaust was a test to see what I liked.
