Hi Guys,
Just thought i would share a few pics of my new twin exist exhaust system i had done at MIJ performance yesterday. As some may remember, in January my back-box sheer off, so drove it like that for a few months (loved the noise though, but was a bit too loud). Managed to get a ST220 bumper off the bay, then got two small SS back-boxes and tail tips installed yesterday. Must say am loving the noise it makes now, well please with the install. Gave her a good wash and wax this morning.

looking good.
I made a SS rear section today as my back box also fell off, no box just a length of 700mm pipe

ive black eyes my xenons now and i think they look better on halogen lights than on xenons having now seen yours.

Car/ pipes Look very impressive! -

i would really appreciate it if you tell me -

did they fit 2 silencers?/ where is the y join? - stick some pictures up of the underside if you like i would be interested to see how they did it

how fast does the car feel now- compared to having the back-box/ when the back box was off?

how loud was it really?(without the backbox)

describe the sound without the backbox/ how it is now

do you have a decat/ middle silencer fitted?

thanks in advance

does it really matter what its like underneath do you think? or are you just curious to see?

im going for single exit on mine i dont like the idea of twin exit, more pipework thats not really needed.

Hi there thanks for the comment
They fitted small silencer boxes at each ends of the back, the Y join was just underneath by the rear subframe (will get a pic later). I will say when i had a straight through pipe fitted and decat (with no Back boxes), the sound from the car was awesome, just that it was a bit too loud for me (from the inside) and felt a bit slow in my opinion.
For the sound of straight through decat exhaust systems, if you do a search on YouTube, you will find a lot there.
Now i have a straight through decat exhaust system with small silencer boxes at both ends. Went for a mid sport set up, where you can hear the growl when you plant your foot down. Sounds awesome.

Hope this helps
