Man, that looks really nice. I didn't know that Draxas was shipping them with a hi-flow cat (maybe I just don't remember.) That they're going to add a resonator option soon makes it even better. How much did it cost you, and do you have a link to their website? (I think I have an old link, just wondering if there is something more current.)

Definitely looking forwards to installed pics/sound clips even more now

wow depending on price, I really like this setup! Yea if u dont mind post info on ordering / price and get those install pics up asap! haha. looks nice! Reminds me of my other cars catback by thermal r&d, which is an awesome setup! I like it when they have it like the stock setup with the sideways canister.

EDIT. I found this link
http://store.draxas.com/detail.asp?Cat=&Sub=&Item=520#
$725...

me wanting to do header, and full exhaust before supercharger is getting more and more expensive and though to find realistic to complete haha.

www.draxas.com

725 is a correct price, that includes the spipe, hi-flow cat, and resonator/mid-pipe(will be shipping for the 2nd batch of orders), muffler/tip, hardware, and... LIFETIME WARRANTY!

I cant wait till sunday to install this exhaust!

draxas is also coming out with a 4-1 header to match up with this exhaust. once that is released i will have a complete header AND back draxas exhaust

Pricy, but not bad considering that it includes a s-pipe as well as a hi-flow cat, and will soon include a resonator. I like the design too, not a lot of bends in the pipe.

I wonder if you can get it without the s-pipe, and if so, what the cost would be. The reason being that by the time I do I/H/E, hopefully the MMW 4-2-1 header/s-pipe combo will have dropped in price a bit

I feel a little extra power, not much (i feel it the most when i let off the gas, you can tell the exhaust is flowin better with the hi flow cat)

no rasps as of yet, and the exhaust will get slightly louder and deeper once it is broke in.

hopefully i with have some videos tonight so you guys can hear it for yourself

I've been watching this exhaust since I've seen banners here on SL and it's one that I've been trying to find more info on. I'd love to see a video (as would everyone else, of course ). But I might end up waiting for the header to go with it. Do you have any aftermarket header installed?

I currently do NOT have a header installed. This exhaust sounds great with the stock exhaust manifold.

I will be installing the Draxas header once it is completed (4 - 1 header)

So my exhaust will be completely draxas from the header, to the tip.

We have decided to extend the $75 discount through the end of the year. We have had such a good response to the offer that we had no choice but to extend it. When placing the order, please make sure to list your ScionLife screen name in the notes section of the order process. If you do not mention you are a member of ScionLife and list your screen name, then you will be billed full price.

Is this for the exhaust with the resonator? If so I'd be set to purchase.

How is the last section of piping connected? Does it need to be welded, clamped, or is it a press fit?

it fits very snug into the piping for the muffler. it also have a clam to hold it on even tighter. this connection could be welded very easily if you would want it to be welded, though it is not needed.

my friend took some videos tonight, so hopefully ill have them up here tomorrow depending on quality
