Default New breathing pipes

Champion Motorsport just designed and built new pipes for the old girl.
These were done IN HOUSE! Not like all those other frauds ... cough cough!
I have a name in mind but will refrain

Appears to be catless, equal length headers, and extra-wide 3-into-1 merge collectors? Looks like the design's going for constant velocity all the way to the end?

Bet you're matching this setup with a custom ECU tune. Reckon it'd be louder than supercups or R's if catless indeed...

I too am wondering why you moved from M&M?

I personally think the car needs two exhaust tips... Just having one in the back of the car looks kind of weird... Nonetheless, your car is an absolute beast!

Headers are still M&M, its just the rear piping Juan has had custom made by Champion.

I would like to hear this to, its obviously going to be load but would like to hear the 'note'...

Nothing personal, but I think that exhaust exit looks ridiculous. The space left over is cavernous. I understand the principle behind doing the exhaust that way, but the exit could have been a lot more aesthetically pleasing like the pictures below. Other than that, I'd love to hear a clip of it. I'm sure it sounds awesome.

Still M&M, just the 'exhaust' is custom and PERTY
It's pretty much the same thing as the M&M Grand-AM.

BTW they come with EAR PLUGS

You do realize loud is just loud and not FAASST. This from somebody who still has his hearing after 63 years because he always wore Peltor ear muffs in loud area's at work or play. I am a fervent proponent of reasonable sound restrictions. Besides destroying your and others hearing loud noise is stressful, hurts your concentration and is tiring.
