Descendant Exhaust initial review

So I just got my Descendant Racing exhaust from Obnoxious Performance and it looks like a very quality piece so far. All of the welds are done by hand with some very thick flanges. There aren't too many bends in the exhaust and it comes with all of the necessary gaskets and bolts not to mention ALOT of packaging to prevent any damage. Here are some pics and a sound video.

So after about 3 tons of packaging...

Nice! I've been up and down about an exhaust for a while now. This final production piece looks wicked!

Pics from every angle at the rear of the car when installed please!

Lol agreed! The 05-10 exhaust is a 3 inch but the 2011 only comes as a 2.5 inch. Even though world racing lists it as a 3 inch for some reason.

Will have an install video, installed pics and a video for sound all Monday night

If the tip looks to be sitting off center it was more than likely installed in a bind. Try loosening it up and start the tighten sequence from the back moving forward. Attached are pictures...
