I am pretty stoked too!

T... sorry for you to repeat... but will be the final exhaust again? muffler?
we were thinking custom built 3in exhaust with no mufflers.

Kyle:
I bought a 3" Borla S-type. It has a muffler, but I'm pretty sure the pipe goes straight through the muffler, so it's almost like running straight pipes. Here is the link to it:

http://www.borla.com/products/produc...od_sku=140348#

I found the best price here: http://www.southerncarparts.com/2010...st-p-2975.html


If we can figure out how to do it, I'd like to put cutouts on it. But, I'm not really sure it will make much difference with the turbos acting like mufflers. We thought we'd let the car run without the exhaust on it and see how it sounds. Then, put the exhaust on and see if there's much difference. If it's a lot louder without the catback on it, then I'll try to get cutouts for it.

It's a bit tricky to fit cutouts in next to such a big tranny.

The guys at IPS had a hard time getting the cutouts in next to my 2.5" exhaust because the auto transmission is just bigger than the manual. They did some fancy welding tricks to make them work. So, I'm going to wait and see what things look like with the new transmission, 3" exhaust, and turbos down there before deciding about cutouts.

But I do love cutouts! They are so fun.

As you know I swapped out my manual for the 4l80e too and have cutouts on mine with no clearance issues. I will be curious to see if they make much difference on the TT setup.

We never get tired of hearing this kind of feedback from our customers! Thanks for purchasing our parts... and be sure to keep taking trips to Barber, it gets REALLY fun when you start flying around after becoming familiar with the car and the track.

Have Fun!

Wow! Your engine looks awesome! I can't wait to hear it running.

I may just need to go over to IPS in the next few days to have a look at it in person.
