I just installed this catback on my friends car today. It is definetely an easy bolt-on, and if you have an impact wrench or power tools, this shouldnt take you more than 90mins.

It installed with NO exhaust leaks, and no ratteling. It does have a nice exhaust tone, but its not really really deep. So far the bumper hasnt melted at all even though the tip appears that it comes close to the bumper.

My only gripe is the way the damn silencer looks. Butt-ugly.

After the exhaust install, i installed his Injen CAI, and the car sounds sweet.

I dont know if you friend wants the silencer. but if he wants he can take it out himself. All you need are a couple of vice grip wrenches and hammer. It only takes 5-10 mins to take off.

ok, for anyone interested it's now listed on the sponsors forums. i'd really appreciate it any feedback on the exhaust. i am definitely "aware" of the silencer, and i apologize for it, but we have no control over the design of it.

Sorry I didn’t feel like reading the whole thread but can the midpipe still accommodate the stock exhaust if needed?

You need to bend the last hanger on the muffler a little, heat it up and bend it upwards. I did this to mine and my muffler sits 100% perfect with no chance of rubbing the bumper. It looks so sweet.

I've been keeping up with this post and recent post have been a little contradictory to earlier ones. Before, the Tsudo used to be on of the louder exhaust (silencer taken out) and now it seems people are saying its not to loud. Has it gone any modifications, Ver.2 maybe? Or are you guys not taking out the silencer?
