Features & Benefits

  • Unrestricted Performance: The straight-through 3” (76mm) to quad 2.5” (63.5mm) mandrel-bent tubing ensures maximum exhaust flow. 100% unrestrictive design with valves open significantly outperforms the factory system, which narrows to 50mm.
  • Innovative Sound Engineering: Dual OEM-controlled valves and dual Helmholtz drone elimination resonators work together to deliver an exhilarating exhaust note at wide-open throttle while maintaining a civilized tone during cruising.
  • Pure Exhaust Sound: The system avoids packing or sound absorption materials, preserving the natural exhaust note. Advanced 3D spectrograph aided tuning to eliminate unwanted drone frequencies for a pleasant driving experience.
  • Exceptional Build Quality: Strong TIG welding throughout and precision bracketry ensure a perfect fit every time, with no sagging or misalignment, for a professional-grade installation at any skill level, every time.
  • Easy Installation: Low-profile butt clamps allow for a simple, no-cut installation, making it a plug-and-play upgrade with the factory system, including a removable reducer for seamless integration.
  • Optimized Power Delivery: Experience improved turbocharger response with peak gains of 5 AWHP and 4 FT-LBS of torque at all four wheels, enhancing acceleration and overall driving performance.
  • All T304 Stainless Steel Construction: Constructed entirely from durable, brushed T304 stainless steel, ensuring long-lasting quality, resistance to corrosion, and a striking appearance.
  • Premium Quad Exhaust Tips: Features quad 5.2x3.9” (131mm x 99mm) matte carbon fiber tips with stainless steel inlays, adding a high-end, customizable touch that exudes luxury.
  • Customizable Tips: The exhaust tips are removable and can be swapped for other designs, giving you the freedom to tailor the system’s appearance to your personal style.
