Got my exhaust done last wednesday! Thanks to Jeff at First Try Engineering.

Took the car over there with my tips and splitter and had Jeff fab up a nice dual exit system that models the SLP loudmouth style exhaust. Except i got a chambered tube instead so its abit quieter but still loud and deep.

Its a true 3inch all the way back from header ypipe to the tips. The tips are Summit Racing 3inch inlet / 3.5 inch outlet tips… 12inch long with slash cut and rolled lip. I like it

Looks great bud! Any sound clips? You’ve got one of the nicest third-gen’s around I’ve seen.

PS: Liked the painted amber on your taillights.

</div>

to be honest i didnt really notice anything with the LCA’s but i’m sure they are alot stiffer than the stock stamped pieces.

and again, with the Torque arm, i dont have a good before and after 60 foot time to compare but i’m sure it helps alot. adjusting the pinion angle has to help some and its alot beefier than the stock piece. Plus its crossmember mounted and NOT trans mounted so it takes some stress off the trans. you can kinda feel it shift backward some as you launch it so i think its really planting the rear end.

only thing i dont like is the swiveling mount, because it makes some noise under the car with the arm shifting around and such. just how it is designed. And its pretty hefty…since its solidly built. But other than that, its got quality construction and fits excellent. good quality piece
