Exhaust Install and noticed some problems

Well, some of you know that Ken gave me an Exhaust and it included dual tips. Well, the install went very well, except for trying to get the factory metal straps off of the stocker.
The only issue I had was when I probably had my PSS9's installed last year at the dealer. When I looked at my front swaybars, it seems that the dealer never connected the linkages to them. No bolts, and a ton of rust on the links.

A while ago, I posted about how noisy my PSS9's were, and thought that that was the inherent design of them. Anyway the sways are connected, and the car is quiet as can be....also notice alot more stablility around turns. Only drove about 10 miles, so this weekend I should get a better feeling from them.

Love the exhaust...mild then goes to a full out scream under WOT. Kinda reminds me of a jet afterburner sound. Thanks once again to Ken.

Yea iLLM3, the sound is really cool. I love hearing the turbos spooling up then a loud "thrust" sound coming from the rear. The only words I could think of was jet afterburner...glad you liked it.
Soon it will be time to turn it up a little and upgrade those turbos...to really hear it scream!

Yea man same with me, right now im doing muffler bypass (straight pipes) since i have no cats already, how much louder can it possibly get lol and evo v flow for now.. Honestly in this colder weather and even in 50's, this car still satisfies my need for speed and i never get bored of it, surprising for me at stg 2!

Anyway eventually i'll be throwing some hybrid turbos on and doing alot

Enjoy man!
