Talking Teaser exhaust vid/pics!

Well I was fooling around with my car last friday just for fun and this was the result. At first I was a little worried the tips would look bad but I think it turned out looking clean almost stock, can anyone tell me what car they are from?! The second I pulled out of the muffler shop I was ticketed lol the car is extremely loud and sounds AMAZING in person the ****ty clip does it no justice at all. I didnt want to post pics of my new look until I took better pics this weekend but might as well show you a little crappy cell phone pic I took. More to come soon as you can read in my sig!

No muffler just straight pipes lol the sound in person is amazing you have to see and hear it to truly appreciate it the little camera does it no justice. Ill throw the mufflers back on later I just like the sound for now!

Sorry the sound isnt that great it sounds like a harley or too heavy, the straight pipes really add some kind of a drone tone to the exhaust. Its kind of like a V twin too noisey.

Here is mine

Listen to mine carefully and compare it to yours, I love how I get a panther like sound when I let off the gas at high revs in the second video.

Sounds great. So the tips increased the sound? That must be damn loud then because it was already loud last time I heard it.

Post another clip driving. I'd like to hear it some more.

BTW, where did you get the mufflers? Or is it just tips?

lol I hate on this forum I cant quote everyone in one reply... anyway it was by fluke that I came across these tips and Jess mentioned above they are Pcar tips. I forget which car they are from exactly but they turned out looking amazing even the merc techs love them. They are a bit bigger than the stock AMG tips and they are made by Essiemen (or how ever you spell that damn companies name lol). Ill have a lot more pics and more vids come this sat for you all!

Hey CJ and Dan,

Perhaps we can do another meet. Would like to check all the mods you've done. Hopefully, we can get more people this time.

I'm down. Let's do it. Of course, I'd prefer a track event. Come on... $160 gets you on Thunderhill. It's safe and fun plus it would be awesome to have a pack of SLK55's out there.

How about August 23rd or 24th...
