    At least most of it is hidden under the car. I will get someone to take a picture from the back tomorrow so that you can see what the tip looks like which is the view that hopefully most people will be seeing

    I'm interested to hear it, because the straight through design that was on there wasn't very loud to begin with.

    It may not be that much more quiet, but it will pass for a muffled exhaust system, for competitions. BUT we might design a resonator closer to the middle of the system where the sound needs to be captured. And next will be designing it in sections, with unboltable pieces for servicing/removal.

    Just to clarify, and please correct me if im wrong. But wouldn't this only give significant gain to a drag car, or a car thats mainly going straight? Because I thought the idea was to have a lower center of gravity when turning. And the exhaust is about as low as you can get. I understand it will help with heat and what not.

    oh and I know its on a drag car, I was just thinking about if it makes it to production.

    Not sure, but I wouldnt want 40 lbs of exhaust tryin to sway side to side under my car. A lower center of gravity and wider stance doesnt really include exhaust, just suspension and steering components. But I understand what you mean.

    A lower center of gravity includes everything, but you never add weight to get a better center of gravity.

    I will be doing a sunroof delete over the winter so that should help equal everything out being that it is pretty high up. Lower overall weight would help a road course car by helping acceleration out of the corner and reducing braking distance also. I do agree that a lower center of gravity helps turning stability.

    Yeah I'm hoping to pick up a cheap DD next summer so i can go all out with the prelude. They make a CF sunroof plug that saves like 20lbs after removing the track and steel sunroof. at only $300, im very tempted.
