> How much power is to be had versus the common 3" exhaust with no cats or resonators or restrictive mufflers? Your non dumped exhaust seems to have all of these, which is attributing to a larger gain when the dump actually opens. Not trying to bash the work (which is beautiful) but it is probably easier and cheaper for most people to use a run of the mill 3" exhaust and test pipe, unless you are having trouble with coppers, in that case this is an awesome system.

Even a 3" exhaust will certainly have more restriction that this design. But that’s really not important. The point was not to find a cheap option, the point was to build a system that had the very best of both Worlds.

With the dump closed, the car idles as quitely as a stock Honda Accord. Cruising the car is almost inaudible, perfect for having a conversation or listening to tunes. Open, the car transforms into a race car, loud, responsive and obnoxious.

The value in this system is not the cost or that there are cheaper alternatives. The fact that I can have two different cars and switch between then in lest than two seconds from the push of a button was the experiment…and the dyno is proof positive that it has worked.
