I just bolted on my DC Sport Catback this morning. Thank you to everyone who helped me choose it, I cannot say how much I love this exhaust. Thanks especially to Stew who gave me pictures and a lot of details! (where would I be w/o g2ic?)
Installation was really easy. I unbolted the original custom piping I had, and then took it off the hangers. The hangers are a bitch to get off, cuz they’re on there tight. The best thing to do is to undo the part connected to the car first, then yank it off the hanger from the piping. The rest fit in perfectly. Beautiful exhaust.
The exhaust itself is very shiney chrome, it looks increadible from the underside. The piping follows the path of the stock piping, and the muffler sits sideways like the stock muffler does, and then out of that comes another pipe with a very nice slanted tip. The tip has DC Sport etched in the top, which I think is pretty cool. The tip itself looks very high quality, except for some reason mine was bent on one side, probably because of shoddy shipping, but nevertheless it was great
The sound is amazing! There is NONE if you don’t floor it! This is exactly what I wanted. If you’re idling, you might get scared that your car has turned off on you (at least for me it sounded like that). I kept thinking my car died on me or something, but in fact you just can’t hear it.
I floored it once at WOT, and wow it had this real deep tone to it, which was barely audible from the inside until I hit 5.5k rpm, then it roared! But after i let up and stayed around 80mph, there was no noise. 4k rpm and no noise! But if I floor it a bit to go faster, i slightly hear the low pulse of it.
The performance felt better with the new exhaust, though I did slap in a carsound high flow cat along with the new exhaust to take place of the stock cat, so I"m not sure if that had influence. I’m sure that it is better than my 2.25" custom piping with 18" resonator and obx bomb tunable muffler.
Overall, I rate this to be a VERY high quality exhaust, and I would recommend it to anyone, and everyone looking for a quiet everyday drivable exhaust, with performance, and something that’ll roar when WOT.
