Just an update on the MI exhaust...
I've been keeping mileage records since the car was brand new and the overall average for the first 900 miles is 35.7mpg. This is all rural roads under 50mph and stop and go city driving, but no 5th gear freeway driving.

When I installed the exhaust I didn't bother to reset the computer because it didn't trigger the check engine light. About a week ago I was logging the clearances for the manifold mod and thought what the heck I'll reset it. Tanked up today and the mileage jumped to 37.4. This is an mpg gain of 4.8%.

It hardly needs to support any weight, because almost all the weight is on the two stock donuts. It's just used to slightly adjust the height of the tip.

Yours is tolmach.

Your center exhaust really sounded great on the dyno... not one hint of harshness or raspiness all the way up to redline.

anyone try starting a Group Buy?

Get 8 sedan owners who will put up a $200 deposit for it (with the promise that the final cost will be under $400, and hopefully closer to $300) and I'll make really nice ones for you.
