Going to be upgrading to 3" or so and just seeing if there is any interest.
Probably wont bolt up to any other turbo systems just because of my turbo location.
however. it is 2.5" fully stainless, with stainless wire welds. comes with an 02 sensor bung, as well as an offset wideband bung in the downpipe. then there is a 3 bolt flange. (also forgot, willing to sell the egt gauge as well since its in the dp, or i can have the hole filled with stainless... its an Autometer Phantom II EGT full sweep electric gauge. probably throw it in for free as an added bonus)
midpipe is 3 bolt flange, into a flex pipe, with a body mount hanger, into a thrush glasspack for a resonator, then it follows the stock location all the way to the rear axle where there is another 3 bolt flange before it goes over the axle.
the tail section comes over the axle, still using mandrel bends, into a dynomax super turbo muffler and you i believe a 3" resonated tip. i cant remember the size of the tip but it fills my bumper in perfectly.
to make the full exhaust we used 2-45's, 2-90's, and 2-180's.
this exhaust hangs super tight to the car for maximum clearance. just ask Yellow22 about the quality and fitment of this guys work. its amazing. everything was cut once and put together.
so make offers. i paid $638.40 for it. and thats already the same price as just a catback and this is for FULL exhaust. Most catbacks alone are going for the same price.
i have many pics of the building process as well if anyone would like.

This kit fits VERY well for lowered cars. my car is about as low as it goes for coil overs and it still clears the rear bar EASILY. Let me know if you need anything else.
Do you have any recent pics of how it currently looks. I'm curious because i've never seen that red glasspack ( Thrush?) offered in stainless, is the muffler stainless as well?
the glasspack is not stainless but i dont think i have any recent pics of it. it shows ZERO signs of rusting, as well as the aluminized muffler.
the glasspack is more of a pale red vs the brand new red. thats all. they do offer the glasspack in stainless but its an extran $50 more last i checked. as for the muffler, no rust, the clamp around it will rust before the muffler does since GM does not offer a stainless muffler bracket. it does utilize that factory hanger as well.
when ever i washed the car, i made sure to pressure wash even the underside just to get all the crap off the car. exhaust or car, has never seen salt or snow. this exhaust will last someone a very long time. and a turbo back for a great price too.
thats sweet dude definitely worth what you paid for it
yeah but finding someone who wants it is another story.
haha id keep it if it was 3"
Yea it would be a nice piece over my aluminized/mild seup but I cant see stepping down from 3", wouldnt do me any good.
glws though!
