New exhaust maker!
I've always been amazed there isn't more to choose from in exhaust options. A few places make 2.25" systems but what about 2.5"? I'd rather have the 2.5", it looks like Pypes is getting close to having their system out.

It looks nice! Also
http://www.allencorvetteexhaustsystems.com/ has some 2.5" stuff. I am finishing installing headers and have been looking around.

I really really like the looks of that.
Depending on price I may try to sell/trade my current exhaust for it

If you want another option, I found hearthrobexhaust back when I was looking. But, I don't think they make pre-fit stuff for C4's.

Sweet looking system, and header friendly, I'd say.

My buddy put a pypes system on his modular mustang, by far the sexiest exhaust I have ever heard on a stock American v-8. He bought it because it was cheap too. I like the mandrel bends on the front y-x pipe.
The prototype pics look like a custom hand made exhaust, if they make the kit, it will look nicer. Exciting, but may be too loud for some.

Looks fantastic
I hope they have a different selection of tips though cause those are LT1.
