Default muffler bypass at an autox

Here is a video of it being actually driven at an autocross instead of, you know, just cruising around disturbing the peace. I got a lot of compliments on it!
I drove ~2 hours on the highway to get to savannah from Jacksonville and it didn't tire me out, but I wouldn't want to remove the cats.

Sounds nice! Hard to tell from watching the video, but it sounds like my Fister D's. The bypass pipes are probably louder in person, I would imagine.

Looks like a lot of fun and the exhaust sounds great! I'd love to hear them in person. It's so hard to tell online.

which bypass mod did you have done. Did you use the 3rd unused port or tap the inlet to the outlet.

nice sound!!!

im runing cats bypass and the car at wot is very loud!(like you) i always received good compliments on it also.

one thing is that i'm over 92db at mont tremblant circuit, and i have to use custom pipes(like cup cars) to get less sound!


one thing to keep in mind

Your exhaust sounds great. But your video of the Auto-X was fantastic. I would love to do one on a road course. Very easy to find your way thru!

Thanks guys! This was definitely one of the faster events ive been to. It was at roebling road. The buccanneer region scca does this event every year with a great turnout. The exhaust is a used ebay muffler bypass. It isnt a muffler mod it is a complete muffler bypass. The camera is a go pro hd shooting 1080 at 30fps. I used a suction cup mount on the rear window.
For the speeds i used 3rd through turn one, so 70+ and towards the end you can hear me pegging the rev limiter in 2nd. Thanks again!
