Speedtech 3" x-cellerator exhaust

Looks like I wasn't the only one to get this installed recently.

I had mine installed this afternoon. What a difference. While the tone improvement is significant, the throttle response is remarkable. I knew it would be an improvement, but I did not realize it would be that much.

At idle the car is still relatively quiet with a slightly deeper tone. I was hopeful it would be deep enough to drown out the warm idle rattle - but no. The only drone I get is around 2500-2700 and it is minimal at best - even the stock stereo easily overpowers it. Above and below that, there is none. At WOT the sound is incredible. You can finally hear the turbos spool. We have a crazy amount of snow right now so the snow banks on all the streets are over 10 feet tall. It is like we have tunnels everywhere . I wavered between the 2.5" and the 3" system and I am very happy I went with the louder version.

I am still getting used to the 4" round tips, but they sit nicely and are centered perfectly. The fit and finish of the entire system is excellent. The weight loss was nice although I can't really feel it. It is nice to know it at least cut 20 pounds or so.

I will attempt a video and some pics later this week.

Hi Nick,

Thanks for the business and I'm glad to hear you are enjoying the system. It must sound fantastic with the 10" snow banks all around! Maybe I'll make it out there next winter and see for myself :-)
