Default MBRP Exhaust installed....

And its amazing.

I have been MIA for a few months from the car game, just bought a house but I have been waiting for a company to make real 3" exhaust for the C7
. Who would have thought it would have been produced by a truck exhaust company. Took a gamble with this exhaust because there is not much information on it.

I cut the reducers off the end that mate to the stock x pipe and welded on 3" pipe ends. I then had ARH make a custom set of connecting pipes for my 2" header system with true 3" ends that allow the new exhaust to slip in. The result is a true 3" system with no valves or restrictions at all. Performs the same as my turndown system but quieter.







I paid 900 for the exhaust, 250 for the connection pipes and there is currently an additional 75$ MFG rebate on this exhaust. I will get better pictures of this exhaust and videos in the near future.

It is fixable with some final adjustments, just installed the exhaust. The tips can move individually. Thanks for the kind words though! You should go post some more pics of your muffler delete with smaller than stock piping on some more people's posts.... We haven't seen enough of it yet.

Here is the link to the exhaust: http://mbrpautomotive.com/index.php?page=products&part=S7030304

They claim +13hp but I am guessing that's over non npp. A few hp over npp is realistic on a stock car. On a big blower car like mine it is VERY noticeable. Over 700hp it should be worth 30+ with long tube headers. My car needed a ton more fuel when I originally switched from stock to my turndown exhaust and this doesn't feel any different.

that's nice gains but is it necessary for me to get that since I got npp also this would remove the option to turn off my exhaust from touring to track right

Hello all! This exhaust sounds fantastic, fits great and is the only true 3" system on the market. It is slightly louder than NPP with minimal drone and real power gains. I am actually selling this exhaust. I took it off the car with 250 miles as I went back to stock and traded in for a Plum Crazy Hellcat.

750 shipped to whoever wants it! Will fit stock exhaust, or any of the long tube setups on the market!
