Well I certainly don't have length. His may be thinner, but it's a solid foot longer!

Eric's all about the tuna can tailpipe. 1" long and 4" around......

Hey Rdss, Nice build man. That car is looking nice. That SLP Looks nice on the car. like the hidden look of the exhaust. but idk if its the video or not, but it seems very quiet, even for a 1.4 turbo engine. I expected a little more sound to it. How does it sound in person? Got a nice start there. keep up the good work.

Thanks fallen! It's just the iPhone (baaaaa) video I think. You never get the full effect of an exhaust over cheap video. It sounds pretty good, it's actually just right for me. It has a light rumble at idle and a slight drone while accelerating but not bad at all, the ex and my boy haven't complained about it yet (she said it was pretty riced out with no tailpipe). What makes the SLP exhaust superior to the rest is you can just get a section of pipe with one end expanded, just trim and slip in place if the muffler/resonator or both and you can customize the exhaust to you liking. I MIT get a magnaflow muffler that's offset/centered to get the tailpipe up a little higher to hide it some more.

Just took some pic's after it got a bath. Added it to the tint portion of the build as well.

Can't wait to get the LTZ 17's on it, it's going to be a little while though, probably March.

I did the whole RNI mod and I love it !! It cost 48 dollars and 10 minutes, it was worth it for sure

Good deal! Got pics?! What filter did you go with? I ordered the DDM intake so I will probably be letting my filter go pretty cheap when I get it.

 

[SonicMan]

I used a K&N

 

[SonicMan]

As soon as K&N comes out with a intake for the sonic I will just need the aluminum intake tube since I will already have the filter

Bad pictures I will get better ones when it's not dark

It may be more of a mental thing but I feel a little difference in power, I can get the wheels to screech a lot more of the shift to second
