Default Installed new Neuspeed exhaust. First impression and pics ...

Alright, I installed the new version of the Neuspeed exhaust on Saturday. I had a Neuspeed/Borla on my car already, but I was curious about the new one.

Here is my impression in comparisson to the "old" Neuspeed. The new one looks great, I love the tips, great finish and I like the fact that it has real dual tips coming out of the muffler. As you see in the pics I still have to do some adjustment to the exhaust, right now it hangs to much to the left. But fit and finish are great.

Now what everbody wants to know is, how does it sound? Well, in my opinion it sounds awesome. It has a really deep groul in idle and when you step on the throttle you definitely know that you have an aftermarket exhaust. It is louder than the "old" version but not to a point where it is anoying. At least not for me. There is no droning, just a clean deep growl that gets pretty audible between 4000 - 6000 rpm.

Here are 2 mpeg clips of the exhaust:

And here a couple of pics. I still have to do some adjustment to make it fit right, but you get the idea of what it looks like.

Default I have the same problem with mine....

Hangs a little too far over on the left...and I've already moved the hanger supports over as far to the right as I can. Any suggestions other than modifying the hangers?

Default Move the bracket that is attached to the subframe between wheels

That's how I got mine to align. There are adjustment slots. Seems the exhaust tends to hang to the left before you make the adjustment.
