does that price include having the pipe welded? i actually considered going your route but at the cost of buying a 3" mid-pipe and two of the racing beat resonators & paying to have it welded would pretty close pricing between the two, so it was a easy desicion for me mazsport all the way, only rant is it sits pretty low so clearance is pretty skecthy, the exhaust note and how deep my hks hi-power sounds now has a very good exhaust note...ask konig he drove my car

a turbo, a pre-silencer, a resonator (the stock turbo xs one) and then another pre-silencer......the entire exhaust system costed me........lets see

550$ + 150....= 700$ for a full turbo-back tripple resonated exhaust.........

how much is your midpipe again?

I guess some people prefer quality rather than getting a bunch of small resonators welded in a hacked up mid pipe. I for one am that person.

edit: wait, you're the one that painted your SS with gold accents

I guess with the lack of class you have for your 8, this option you used really doesn't surprise me

j/k......or am I....?

Mine doesn't sit that much lower than stock, bolted in almost perfectly. I did get the spacers for the bracing underneath, as those were barely needed.

What did you pay for those spacers?
I still need to get them.

yes, that does include the welding price and the pre-silencers

go ask racing beat how much the two pre-silencers that mazsport uses cost

That's not bad...
Were the spacers different sizes?
I only ask because it appears that the rear brace will need to come down farther than the front with my car.

I only got 1 set of spacers that I used for the.....front brace I think? I can't remember. They were about a half an inch thick.

that's true, any good Muffler shop can give a straight tube and resonator if you want.

Does that give the resonator enough clearance so that it doesn't rattle against the brace?
I'm assuming the front brace wouldn't be an issue, but a half inch spacer might be close for the rear.
I'll have to measure the distance.

no rattling at all, mine has plenty of room with the spacers. I Just might get another set of spacers for the other brace as it's close to touching it. But like I said, no rattling currently with how its set up.
