2nd Generation Custom exhaust DONE (pics!)
hey guys, well the 2nd generation exhaust system is done. here are the pics... FINALLY 
.
A few things i wanted to mention first though. First off, for those of you who haven't followed along, generation 1 was just one single 10" resonator with the same muffler. However, it droned WAY too much and was VERY unrefined, i didn't like it at all so i knew i had to do something. So i bought two of those resonators this time and its obviously half the resonance as before but there is still some resonance that is unwanted. Also this 2nd generation exhaust alogn with the 1st generation both had "kink" bends as you can see by the pictures. This hinders performance and reduces airflow b/c in the corders it gets down to almost 2" diameter.
Plance for Generation 3 custom exhaust (which will be the last exhaust revision). I will be getting a custom 34" resonator which is 400% more resonance muffling than the single resonator and double the resonance tuning of the two that I have now (b/c its really 8" vs. 32" when you take out the extra material, and 8x4 = 32). as you can see a 34" resonator will fit no problem and it will eliminate alot of that wasted space that you see in the pics both before/between/after the two 10" resonators. I will also spray everything including the muffler this time just to protect it even more from rust and the elements. anyways tell me what yall think.

hey guys, UPDATE on Generation 3....
I have gotten in the mandrel bent piping from JEGS.com for only $17.49 for 2.5" diameter U-bend (12" extentions on each side). I also ordered a custom 34" resonator with 2" extensions on each side with a diameter of 2.5 on each side. so now the full system will be 2.5" and no 2.25" piping with kink bends (which is really only 2"
). Sound clips of Gen2 vs. Gen3 also. thanks guys
