I just bought a 5Zigen/Border Rocket exhaust from modacar.com, I ordered the 60mm NA version (model number XN-02, which is listed on there site), but they sent me the 80mm turbo version =\ I decided to just keep it anyway, as it will make me get off my *** and go turbo sooner than later.
It was a very good price-434 shipped. Full mandrel bent piping and the can is very unique looking, it tapers off into the tip and it sits at an angle to the upper left. VERY LOUD with out silencer (which comes with), quieter, but still pretty loud with it on. ALWAYS deep and at high rpm with silencer, its intoxicating. NOTE: The muffler starts to tap against my bumper at lower rpms, is there a way I can fix this? I installed it fine to the best of my knowledge...
The funny part is that after I installed it, I did notice some loss of torque, but as the night went on, unbenounced to me, my alternator started to go so my engine was really lacking power and it would act very funny, but most of it I chalked up to the exhaust. "Damn I lost so much torque!!" wrong...i had to push my car home =)
