Haha..I cracked up the first time I saw that...I guess I'm cruel, I'm resizing it and using it as a backround

Which isn't always a bad thing. My RS*R is wicked loud...It's the straightest exhaust on the market so it flows awsome, but it's loud. Bothersome at 3AM or on any drive with length involved.

I think i may want to argue this straightest exhaust thing man, my brm is litterally a straight pipe for like 6 feet from the cat to the diff then its two minute bends to place the muffler on the stock location. the only thing i am kinda ehh about it is that it hangs so low b/c of it.

Also another thing about non resonated exhaust, i have one and other than the fact i am now deaf and set of car alarms in a two block radius (sounds so sweet though) is that you can hear everything you do with the gas pedal. Any slight movement of your right foot on that pedal will be heard.

What does this mean?....

Don't use a non ressonated exhaust if you want to be on pinks

My first weekend with a welder, if it was metal and in my garage, I welded it together...lol.
I have a free-form sculpture made of exhaust pipes, pieces of sheet steel, and some other loose bits in the garage. First day of welding in your own garage absolutely rules.

On topic: Making your own exhaust is worth the time, and saves you a few bucks. If you drive it all on the street, a resonator will be a good investment. Even two of them would be better.

Personally, I hate paying for a name and a bunch of BS hype. All the exhaust does is routes the fumes to the back of the car. Anything of ample size and simple shape will do. Check out this thread.
