thank you scrming and mikevrod for inspiring me with your custom exhaust.

When down to my local performance exhaust shop today.
installed a new set of Magnaflows with 4" tips.

I was blown away by the sound of my new custom exhaust.
heart pumping deep low tones, pure muscular sound.

my local shop (http://www.muffler-tech.com) did a remarkable job putting them all together.

here are some pics and videos.

While the exhaust is very cool... Well... the Canon 5D II is friggin' awesome! Love the pics!!! LOL

Would you mind telling me how much $$ for the kit? Or is it just mufflers and the rest custom-fabbed? I already have muffler delete but I'll bet those Magnaflows sound deeper. Does it cackle at all when you let off the gas?

Thanks

thanks Scrming ! I love my car and I love my camera, my life depends on it.

the 2 videos are also taken with the 5D mkII. Hope I'll be able to shoot a neighbourhood drive-by video like that one you did a while ago.

btw, what did you use to mount your video cam in the cabin ?

life depends... pro? I've sold a few shot this spring to Mustang Enthusiast (including my first cover!) so now I guess I get to claim semi-pro! LOL!

My mount thread is hear: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32865

Sounds really good.

A friend of mine has a magnaflow catback on his grand prix gt. His doesn't sound nearly as good as yours (then again, its not nearly as good an engine).

Nice job !.....

The pictures look great !
Do you think you could make a take off video so we could hear what it really sounds like ?
Thanks.............

fixxer56 · 08-25-2009, 11:06 AM

What Magnaflow mufflers did you use?

camarowa · 08-25-2009, 11:48 AM

I have the absolute identical setup on mine, completed about 6 weeks ago. Total cost for me was $440 incl tax and fab work. Btw I'm located in the pacific northwest for cost comparison purposes.

n-shane@hotmail.com · 08-25-2009, 12:44 PM

and also we need another video outside of a garage so it doesnt appear louder.. like driveby on the street from start to finish... thanks so much!!

Awesome pics.... Glad to see someone using a real camera for a change. I have the same one, I find using an external MIC is the only way to fly when shooting videos with it. I use a JVC shoe mount stereo and seems to work real well with it.

BTW... What lenses are you using, if you don't mind me asking .... I have 3 L series running with mine... 24-105, 70-200, 100-400 ..... Dang lenses cost more than the camera does...LOL...

Exhaust sounds great!

Lenses are an investment... bodies come and go but a good lens will stick around for a very long time! I actually had the same 3 Ls as you (my 70-200 is the F4 IS version). I sold the 100-400... just wasn't using it enough... What I do now for the once or twice a year I need it I rent the Canon 300mm F4L IS.... very reasonable rental! BTW, shoot a 50D and 5D...

Coupled with my 50D:

Do love the 24-105 too! LOL!

I've been having so much fun with my Camaro I've hardly had time to grad my photo gear out!

ok... sorry to hi-jack... just get so excited talking Canon! LOL!

SlingShot · 08-25-2009, 06:51 PM

My 70- 200 is the 2.8 , after the first $1200 what's another 300 for a faster model .... And the plus side of the 2.8 it turns on all the focus points on the Mark II anything slower than 2.8 only give you 9 points. I also use the 2x converter with the 100-400 and can get way out there with it. I used it on a trip to Alaska and the shots on Mt. Denali are crazy good ... They weren't with the Mark II though, just got that last January .... ( Had to wait for that forever also )
