Thanks everyone for the compliments! It's deff not for everyone. I love my rides to be LOUD!


And again a huge thanks to the cms crew for doing all this for me. It was a little bit of a challenge and I'm very picky. But they delivered big!!

That car is baDa$$. Nicest side exhaust I have ever seen. very clean.
would be interesting to see a drive by video with the car at full tilt going by in second and third gear. more interesting to hear it in person. The car has a classic cobra thing going on.

And awesome work Ryne. Once I get the funds I know where I am dumping my cash
If you get this exhaust mod the next thing your neighbors might do is blow up your car

Use a stock exhaust out back and electric cutouts to activate the side exhaust. Best of all worlds.

That car sounds absolutely amazing. I'm sure it's a combination of cam, headers etc. Nice work

Sure we could have done that. But I wanted to have side exhaust. First c6z streetcar with side exhaust in the world. And there is a custom diffuser where stock exhaust was so there is no eye sore.

Understand, I was responding to the guy who wants something in the back. Ya'll did a fantastic job. The Viper guys should be jealous. It has a side exhaust just like their precious jewel, but doesn't sound like a UPS truck with a hole in the muffler.

Default So I wonder...

I FREAKN LOVE THE SOUND! Sounds nastier than mine! I'm running the B&B Fusions with the Mild 2 Wild switch.

I wonder though, I can imagine me keeping my B&B's and using that "cutout" actuator to engage the side pipes but... how would that work if I have the ZR1 side skirts? I have the skirts and I don't know how I can have both.

Is there a way I can keep my B&B's and my side skirts and have your side exhaust?

Also, are there mufflers or anything on there? Is this like running "dumps" off the headers (in terms of sound)? How do these things work?

Thank you very much! There is little mufflers on there. There was a lot involved to do this. We had to build a custom fuel cell in trunk because where the factory tanks are. Not as simple as going to your local muffler shop and telling them to run side pipes. Not sure if it would work for your application.

Why the need for a custom fuel cell? Any pictures of this thing in the trunk? Will these pipes preclude my side skirts?

If you look under your car you will see why the need for fuel cell. The saddle bag gas tanks are right there on either side where my side pipes now are. No way around it. Trust me. I will get a lot of pics and more videos up soon. I am gonna pick up the car today. We shot the video but the car was not 100% complete. Ryne actually tuned it yesterday and was going to finish up the tune today.

But for room and obvious heat reasons, you will need to move the stock fuel tanks. Next time your car is on a lift, peek under there and you will see exactly what I'm talking about.


On the positive side, car made 615rwhp! Gained 35rwhp by switching my lg 1 3/4" headers to the 2" ar headers! Thought lg's were supposed to produce the most

Nice, but i would think you would expirience tons of heat on your sills and rockers. Did you wrap the exhaust in anything? just wondering, having a Viper and knowing how much heat this throws out there. Still sounds amazing.

So just the exhaust change gained 35 rwhp? No cam change or anything else?
