Well, the pony express FINALLY delivered this thing. All I can say is, it was worth the wait. First test ride was awsome. The driver lost 25 lbs, and now with this exhaust, whew. It's pullin' noticably harder. I'll try to dyno it soon, but on a back road to my house, I regularly gun it and brake in the same place. Normally hit 102-104. Today hit 110. I know, I know, it could be anything, but the lost weight sure helps. Thanks Spugen! One more happy customer.

Well, I lost about 25-30 lbs over the last 2 months. The Spugen SS single is 26, and I think the stock is 46 or so. So all together, the load is about 50 lbs lighter. I'm assuming I picked up 3-5 hp, which several Spugens have shown. Anyway, thanks.

The sound is awsome; a delightful roar at WOT, and just a bit deeper and louder than stock at speed with a steady foot.

Oh yeah, my neighbor (owns a 911, 430sc, Boxter S, and a couple others) said it sounded great, big improvement. Actually his lexus is in the first pic, across the street in the garage.
