Yeah the thing is my car shoots out some pretty big flames and have the exhaust cut underneath like that and cutting it short. I mean I would be worried about it cathing something on fire down there ya know.

I mean I would have to start a fire and melt the hole damn thing. Here's a enclosed pic of how big my flames can get.

for the record please stop emailing me and pm'ing me offering to buy my exhaust.

the second certain people hered I was getting a new stainless custome exhaust I had like 2 emails with offers. So if certain people fall through or have trouble raising the money I will contact the next person in line...so on and so forth.

Right now it looks like 10 people want to buy my exhaust. lol. Im flattered really

That exhaust flame is pretty mean
Just have them put some heat shielding on the inside of your bumper cover

Like I said probably not worth it, but I would think your flames are such a quick burst that the chance of it catching anything on fire(aside from dry grass) would be slim. But you are probably just safer either way, routing it out the back and letting it out a little past the bumper.

Looks very good, keep this updated. Are you painting the whole car or just the back? Also do you have any pics of the damage?

nah dual exhaust would look pretty gay on this car. I havent seen my new system yet but, it will come out at a angle through the 968 bumper hole and will be polished and clean looking

I will take some more pics of the bumper and exhaust system tomorrow

gone up in smoke, lol

Yes you are old, that was my generation.

John, I am so tempted to do the rear job in my car that look awesome, besides that you will gain at least 100rwhp with the 968 rear
