Default I had a chance to drive a 400+ rwhp

The exhaust is very nice sounding, very nice indeed. I'm thinking about getting one so I can drive on the street again. My current exhaust is so loud it makes the drivers of the Vipers and AC Cobras with their side pipes just cringe.

The exhaust sound of Asura's system was totally acceptable at driving speeds. It is a deep rumble that signals for all to hear that respect is due. In traffic, be it 30 mph or 60 mph, it was easy to modulate quiet. My Tracey Sports 70mm dual is much louder in normal driving and there is absolutely no modulating quiet.

It will be interesting to see how many hp and ft lbs it opens up on the test mule, an F22c modified to produce 405 rwhp with the factory exhaust.

Stay tuned.

Nice. I'm considering his exhaust as well. Has he decided on a price? Any chance for a video?

He's got pics somewhere here on s2k. I spoke w/him last week and he mentioned probably a group buy. Check "Forced Induction" Dec. 13,07

this sounds promising, i'd definately consider this. I'm thinking of purchasing a 70mm ss Asm exhaust but if the price is right i'd definately consider this.

Any word on the single version asura?
