I kinda got fed up with their website and gave up trying to find those parts and the price. Their Smart car exhaust is about $400.

Someone call them # is at end of video, I like the made in USA part, and it sounds great. I wonder if the 10%$ increase is with the muffler delete?

I doubt that the "muffler delete" does that much. I got a "delete" done last Thursday and my car sounds fast but probablly got the same increase in HP that any axle back does. Look at the pics in my thread titled "My new exhauts" sorry would post the link but my phone won't let me do stuff like that.

agreed. like all axlebacks, it's all about the noise :) butt-dyno is much cheaper than an actual dyno trip :)

Probably a bit too loud for me but the headers sound interesting. Too bad I cannot find them on their website!

wouldn't there be back pressure issues?

No not really. For one I still have the stock mid pipe (2 cats and 1 resonator) and Two look at most of the aftermarket exhausts how many of them have baffles in them how many are straight through? Almost all of our aftermarket exhaust are straight through and just change the tone or pitch of the exhaust. Also why would Nitto make a mid pipe that has no cats and 3 resonators for more straight through flow and would also have less back pressure?
