Default my new dc sports exhaust

oh man, i just picked up and installed my shiny new DC sports exhaust axle-back system, and yup, it kicks ___. way low tone, with the perfect volume, enough to hear it growling while its idling, but not so loud that it drives you crazy inside the car. Really deep deep tone. AWESOME! it is definitely worth every penny. i hear everyone usually stop here at the tone of their exhaust, but im not gonna. let's talk about power. The extra horsies and torque can be obviously felt after install. Much much better than stock. not a mod that you strap on and go, i think i feel something.

Installation is such a piece of cake on this thing too. I know DC has a sweet xb that they use as a prototype and they spend extra time dialing in their stuff so that it fits perfect. getting off the old exhaust was the hardest part and even that was super easy (i lubed up the rubber grommets and pushed hard on the exhaust and it pulled right out) DO NOT PAY TO GET YOUR EXHAUST PUT ON! it is about as easy as it comes. one clamp, and just let it hang in the grommets. took me all of 20 minutes including setup time.

if you're looking into getting exhaust, DC is my recommendation. any questions, just post em

First of all POST PICS! Second is that at any rpm range it doesn't sound annoying?

so i post an honest review of what i got and get picked apart because my digital camera got stolen and i can't post pics. oh wait, u guys didn't ask. i forgot. how about u try being cool first and maybe pming about pics or something. nah. people post these reviews to help you make the right choice to get more power out of your little scion. i offered as much help as i can at the moment. i don't work for dc. never have, never will. i just like their product that i bought. in my opinion its the best bang for my buck. just trying to help you guys out. hope i did that, even though i was unable to post pics. l8s

naw man, your cool. look at every post here that someone has of something new they installed like rims...the very first thing we do is ask for pics. it's a horrible thing now and i'm fukn tired of it so i'm resorting to funny remarks that don't help the situation. this passes the time and gets others to post funny things while we wait for these damn pics

Nice buy! DC makes some really good products. Do you have pics of your car with it on and not the generic pics from DC?

later

also here is a sound clip of a dc sports exhaust on an Acura RSX. Sounds beautiful

How does it sound cruising on the highway? Is it particularly loud or annoying for long trips?
