Here's another video of my current setup. Tanabe Axleback with Berk's High Flow Cats... Cold start in a parking lot. Don't mind my tall self.

Sounds good I just wished Tanabe would have made a full catback for the sedan like they did the coupe.

are the mufflers new? or are you blowing blue smoke for other reasons? I think that sounds perfect. I have the same setup waiting to get installed. I can't wait

No the muffler's have over 4500 miles on them, cats have roughly 2000. It was a cold start, zoo that explains all the smoke.

Custom exhaust done at my local muffler shop. 2.5" Y-pipe back exhaust mufflers deleted and resonators replaced with 2 Chamber Race Mufflers.

Wow!
That sounded absolutely wonderful. You're happy, aren't you? I think you should be. I would be.
You 7AT guys, dropping the car out of gear so you can rev the engine... you guys kill me, LOL.

I told him the same thing, really digging his setup. That's with factory cats too(I think).
You should've seen me in the tunnels on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge yesterday... Dropping to 3rd so I could listen to my car.

Us 7AT guys use the paddle shifters, or at least I do, and down shift to get the rev matching downshift note. It's music to my ears.

Yeah that sounds great. Would like to see a picture of where these chamber mufflers are mounted as they are not in the stock location in the video.

I'm incredibly satisfied with the way the exhaust turned out. It has the slightest bit of drone about 2-3k but it's nowhere near unbearable.

Using the paddles is the only way i drive it anymore lol, that downshift coming to a stop is just orgasmic.

yup, stock cats. I have debated weather to get high flow cats but I don't want the exhaust to get any louder/raspier.

Sounds amazing, can you help a brother out, and let me know what mufflers he put in? Make? Model? I too and getting tired of my stock no sound exhaust.
Thanks.

Any videos from inside the car? I have 2.5" piping from my cats back to Tanabe mufflers, but it's so mild inside the cabin. I can't really hear rev matched down shifts (I have a manual). This might be a good option for me as long as there isn't too much drone.
