Stephen, that looks great! I love it.
I would like to make a center exhaust, the issue becomes making a bumper cover to work with it.

The cut out is the easy part, its filling the holes left behind is the issue, a friend suggested cutting a larger section out of the bumper and then replacing with perforated aluminum for venting and looks...

Difficult to do ?

They are not Borla resonators, I will have to check what they are, i'll get back to you...

I can't wait to get a video of them under load.....

From my previous system (which had catbypass pipes) I have saved 25lbs. I also saved an additional 22lb's with the heater pipes and such.

It took about 3 hours in total to build them, the guy I use is amazing at this sort of thing... The hardest part is dealing with the bumper.

I think it would look great to trim out the plastic section between the OEM exhaust holes. RWB style. And replacing it with a mesh with cutout for the center.

Something like the pic below.

Thats what a friend of mine suggested, some aluminum mesh, right across the back...

Mind you anything RWB looks mean.....

They actually sound very good. I find it better than just straight pipes.
