Why dont you post a picture of your nicest outfit so we can all jab at you too.

A simple search could save you a bunch of posts. Brabus T-12 is easy to research. My friend google knows a bunch about it.

What was up w/secret exhaust? so you did 3" pipes from cat-back correct?

I had been working on different designs for a while and my research led me with this current setup. I took out the stock resonators, mufflers and tips, its was all 2.75". I replaced it all with 3" mandrel bent piping and a straight thru muffler with true 3" tips. This was not done for aesthetics or sound, although it looks and sounds awesome it was done strictly for a performance gain. Everything has been replaced from the stock downpipes back, the stock DP's are 3".

ricker, might want to take that down as not to hijack the OP's thread, this is about his car. I have always had an open door policy on my mods, although you didnt get pics my exhaust was no secret, anything you want to know you can always ask

Bro, I asked you about your exhaust before & you didn't elaborate as you did on this other forum? I'm sure RedMongoosE wont mind the pix? it looks good just wondered why you never told me details when I asked before?

NO biggie, I'm glad to get the recipe, now I'll do my own version

I am glad to hear you went with the 4...I agree on the 6...but I didn't want to jump on you if you had gone that route.

Do you have the carbon fiber rear valence that I have seen on other T-12's(or did that come with a limited edition)?

I think it is a Brabus piece (maybe just only for the 6 tip set-up), check it out:
