So if "ELE" actually means an equal length pipe distance - that's it, Why hadn't anyone thought of this before? Cheers!

Because the most efficient exhaust is as short and straight as possible. There's really no reason to do this other than for the sound benefit. As you can see from the photos, it's awkward to package this, so nobody ever thought to do it before is my guess.

What about the different metallic shielding for the added curved tubing at the end, with the little island (cone) in the middle?
Is this included with the exhaust?

I'm going to be honest, I stared at the photo and I have absolutely no idea what you're referring to. All I can say is everything you see in the photo is either on the car already or part of the exhaust. There's nothing extra that I added to my car other than the exhaust itself. |

Basically it's an optical illusion given the different dimensions. Either way, the setup is sick and sounds amazing. Thanks again for going the extra mile with this man |

Everybody is well aware of the other equal length offerings at this point (due to the main equal length thread). I see no point in muddying up my thread because of it. Respectfully, I ask that you keep your posts in this thread to TGM, otherwise post it in the main equal length thread. Thanks. |

Well, after following the original Equal Length Exhaust thread and listening to exhaust clip after exhaust clip, I have to concede that the TGM system absolutely sets the bar. Some of the others are damn close, but for some reason the TGM systems exhaust note just sounds more refined to my ears.
The howl at wide-open is nothing short of an aural symphony compared to the stock system, and let's be completely honest here: that low-down growl during deceleration is just plain sexy. If it sounds this good on video, I can't wait to hear it in person. Ordered today with the Black Chrome tips. My wallet may be lighter, but that "giddy as a school-girl" feeling when I finally get the opportunity to throttle down on the blacktop will be worth it.

Well you’re obviously a man of impeccable taste my friend
I’m sure you’re just as psyched as I am to get it all hitched up and listen to those equal pipes belt out a melody of badassitude. Has TGM reached out to you with an ETA yet? Last edited by MJ6; 04-25-2020 at 03:45 PM.. |

The latest I’ve heard is that they were going to do some fitment and sound tests to a catless car last Friday and should start shipping systems this coming week.

Hey all,
Just updated the first post to include dyno pulls on catless downpipes. I'll link it in this post too in case you don't want to go back to the first post: |
