It's been raining alot around here, but I finally
decided to take a few pictures and post them for
you guys. I was supposed to wash my car today,
but I got lazy and it's supposed to rain in a
half hour, so disregard the filthy car and check
out the exhaust. I'll follow up this picture with
a couple other posts with a few more pictures.
Working on the car domain site as we speak. Gonna
try and post some more pictures there, clean ones.

If you read my previous thread about Stillen
meets Greddy, you already know about how I
rigged my rubber hangers temporarily so I
don't burn the rear of the Stillen Kit.
Here's a funny pic of how it was done.

Can I go to any auto store and buy longer
rubber hangers and if I do buy longer ones,
do you think my exhaust will be too low?
Looking for any advice on this.

NICE! I love the way the tip looks peaking out from under the Stillen kit. Very nice!

Why not just leave it as is? Looks like it's secure.

Thanks for all the compliments and great feedback.

I was hearing a little bang every time I hit a bump.
It was the intermediate pipe(resonater pipe)hitting the
axel.(I think) So I stopped at Meineke. They heated some
of the hangers and fixed it so the piping sits higher on
the car. No more banging. (the pipe not me)
They also heated the pipe right before the can
and made a little more of a bend by it.(TIP)
Now their is more clearance between the tip and the kit.
All I had to do was tip the guy, which was really cool.

The only reason I got Greddy instead of the HKS
is that the Greddy look is the furthest thing from stock.
I dont want to spend big bucks to have someone say,
"Is that a Stock exhaust? It sounds good."
I think with the Greddy there is no doubt it is
NOT STOCK. In turn no DUMB questions..
But that is just my opinion...

The cat back system cost me about $575.
But if you really shop around and dont care
about waiting a little bit to get it you could
do better on the price.

Looks good man! Any chance on getting a sound clip of the exhaust from inside and outside the car?

What do you think of the Evo with the y pipe?
Do you notice much gains? How does it sound together
with the y pipe?
Very loud at all RPMs?
Any waves of the exhaust with the y?
