A thing of beauty! And I am not talking about the young lady.
Yeah, but if you look at the exhaust it's a V12 ?

I like V12's just as much... The engine looks too short to be a V12, but it does have 6 header tubes showing.

anything not SS you have to drill a weep hole if it isn't already there. Its not going to prevent the inevitable but will push it further back. Even more so if you sand and Hi-Temp paint the surface every other year.

But that is a lot of effort, best to just stay stock and save up for a better setup

That just made the decision for whether to save the few hundred bucks by not getting the stainless when I get mine. I'll definitely be getting the stainless.

OP - Have you looked at Gibson Exhaust? Higher quality than MBRP and sounds great
Might be a good choice but I'm good with salvaging the remaining pipe as I have done...

IMHO 4 and 6 cylinder engines sound like outboard motors no matter the exhaust note. No beating a nice normally aspirated V8. :rockon:

Turbos do a nice job silencing the exhaust note. Better than most mufflers... again IMHO. :)

I've got a turbo sitting in my garage waiting to replace the supercharger... I've already removed the supercharger, it is sitting on the shelf.

Had to stop the work as my "honey do" list has gotten too long.
I'm happy with the sound mine makes..... for a 4 cylinder.



Skip past the first 0:50 seconds to hear it...
