Thanks. I have full 2.5" MSA, w/ headers I just don't like their muffler and that sound is great. I was going to go with a borla, but seeing and hearing that I'd rather keep the money in the Z community. 

Update: dilemna solved. Was going for twice pipes but tried 2.5 instead to avoid cutting of the valance but guess what... ended with twice pipes after all (my muffler guy did an awesome job not cutting) which sounded great to me. Let’s see how long this lasts but like I said I’m loving it for now.

 

Refined sound but too quiet (Abarth)

 

2.5 nice deep scavenging but still a bit quuet

 

Twice pipes... twice the fun.. I’d say it’s closest to the Ansa scream I’m after.. happy camper now.

When you get the opportunity, take some pix of your new system when the car is up on a lift.  I'm sure we'd all like to see your muffler guy's handiwork.

And maybe a little video of some high speed fly bys

My problem with these exhaust pipes is the quality... they are to me...  "Italian made JUNK"  sorry.. but i think they are rustbuckets in no-time.. does someone have other experiences with them?  

Mart.    @wil84911

Mart those are prob the quiet version (should be glasspack and round tips.. see video). Yes they do rust quickly.. it’s an Italian quickie for me . Anyway I’m set for now.

 

Not exactly the same. These are the ones I was looking for.

@wil84911 You could bring your car down for ZCON next year, and we could put it up on my lift.

I’d enjoy the 13 hour drive! I just wish my car is sorted out that time and I have the time. Let’s see.

No lift pics. Hope this helps.

I had access to a sheet metal shop and made the tips out stainless.
