side cut exhaust

[p0cket penguins]

Hey guys,

I have been looking for hours of a side cut exhaust for an e30. (my car is practically a track car even though we putter down the streets sometimes). Is there any pictures out there? I wanted something not ridiculously loud and something i can v band in. Im thinking a 2.25 small highflow cat into a muffler thats 2.25 to 3 inch and then flatten the 3 inch pipe along side the body. What do you think?

No worries. It cost <$20 and sounded amazing outside, quiet inside. Until it rusted off in front of the resonator. I loved that exhaust!

I had a vid of it, but idk where it went to.

like nascar style? i think you should do it... it would look/sound really mean

do it right tho, a guy in my metal shop class made a Y shaped one like this with no muffler... sounded like shit

What's the real driver behind a design like this? Cost? Are you guys running cats?
