I got to work on the new version of the hood exit exhaust tonight and it looks like everything will turn out really well. I have to admit though, I was pretty bummed about cutting up the old one. It just looked so nice...
Anyway, I made a template to cut some tube sections so I could fabricate the bends I needed. Here is a picture of the vibrant resonator, the work I started on the exhaust, and the template.
I made a helpful cardboard reference "thing" so I knew where the exit aka the goal was lol. Otherwise more of the same stuff, measure, cut, finish, tack weld, repeat.
I think these pictures will give you a rough idea of what the finished result will be. I'm excited to get this done and drive the car again this weekend!
