My muffler delete with video - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Here are some close-ups and sound clips of my muffler delete I had done yesterday (the sound is a bit distorted due to my cr*ppy cell phone mic and poor acoustics of the shop bay). Dave and Mitch of CM Performance Exhaust in Margate, FL did an excellent job, using 2.5" stainless steel piping that they custom-bent in front of my eyes with their mandrel pipe-bending machine (one of only 2 in the county, Dave told me) and they did custom hangers as well, as well as welding on my stock tips. All this in <2 hours for $150. He also recently did a custom cat-back exhaust on a IOM SS that he showed me pics and videos of--looked and sounded great also and only charged $700. This one, however utilizes one Thermal R&D stainless muffler, right after the cats, but has 2 separate straight-through chambers for each side. He has to redo one stretch of pipe though when the owner returns and then he'll do a new video of it which he will post online when completed. Here is their website, for those who wish to contact them: http://www.cmperformanceexhaust.com/

Now for the videos ('not sure how to embed videos, so if someone can assist, I'd appreciate it):

start-up & revs:

BTW, bobby35ny took a better video of the startup as well, but I forgot to cover the license plate, so I'm not posting it at this time. Thanks though, Bobby!

I like to see those that go the extra on the job. The mandrel bends look great! Clean job and a great price! Kudo's!
I think you need to post different sound clips. I know it sounds better then those clips sound.
Thanks for posting!!

Sounds awesome even with the crappy phone mic. Hey when you get a chance and maybe a better camera/mic would you mind doing an in car video driving at various speeds and accelerations?
