Default Interesting exhaust configuration - thoughts?

Corvettes are pretty rare on the roads around Nashville so I usually do a double take when I see one actually being driven on a public road. I caught this out of towner earlier this week, at least he is driving it:



Whatever makes you happy!

Can't see the pics at work (blocked from anything like photobucket), but mine had the six pipes when I bought it.
I think it was part of the Mongoose 400 package the guy purchased that included B&B Triflow performance exhaust. I know these get ripped on, here on the forum, but I have left it for now for the uniqueness.

Check out the pictures in my gargage and let me know if these are what's posted.

Now that I am home from work I am able to see the picture, nothing like what I have.


You gotta admit mine is slightly better looking than that
Each pipe comes off one larger pipe out of the can.

Not the same. Yours are attractively done (at the Mongoose price, they shoulda been) and the car posted is badly done... bad spacing and not aligned. I'd keep the Triflow too.
