Doug, my O2 bung is right in the center of the cat delete pipe, maybe 24 inches before it turns to the right and dumps.

I've seen a few club racers using boom tubes with some good results...very flat so not much impact on ground clearance and yet still enough volume so as to minimize back pressure.

I looked a boom tube but the cost was a bit to high for me. I am in this exhaust $60 or so.

I did it in a very similar fashion to vette951

It is loud as hell, especially when combined with a open wastegate dump.

weight savings+less restriction=win. The turbo is all the muffler you need!

Jeff Knight's car has a side exit exhaust. Sorry, I don't have pictures from underneath.

Did you guys move your brake and fuel lines to one side? I can't remember which is on what side, but I know there is one set on each side.

I would imagine it would be pretty dangerous running the exhaust by these!

That's an interesting custom dash w/ stock cluster on the above car. Any pics more pics of it?

Take care!

Different quality of the pic West posted, saved from probably 10 years ago,



Not a great shot, especially since the car is drooping with the LR spring missing, luckily the marshals let us walk the horse shoe to find it....
Daytona, '06.



This car was very loud, especially up against barriers since it had a split Y with an exit on both sides.

We like loud....

West, I asked either you or Viking something about how Eon was taking to instruction at TWS years back...., reply was - "I don't know, he can't hear a d@mend thing I'm saying in there...!?!?!"

Luckily there's all the winter time to modify.
Got interested this as a weight loss. should measure what are the gains before biting the bullet..
