Was it custom fab'd?

I have retained my stock exhaust because I was thinking that I'd do a DE at Laguna Seca sometime in the near future. But, I think I need some nice exhaust note to stir up some passion. I used to own a Ducati with an aftermarket exhaust, and I was always wow'd by the sound of that thing (even though it was underpowered compared to modern inline-4's).

Over the weekend, I heard some guy flogging a ferrari somewhere in town. I never saw him, but I heard him for a good 15 seconds. I would estimate that he was 1/4 mile away, but that the sound echoed throughout the valley. I was riding my bike, and I stopped just to listen to that car.

That video of John's car did it for me....I want an exhaust like his. Screw Laguna's db limits.

Its a Nismo exhaust coupled with test pipes and DC headers.

I have in-car footage I'd like to post if anyone's interested. How can I do this? Just to pique your curiosity, here are the highlights:

SEE...Porsches and M3's being smoked!
SEE...Watkins Glen on a beautifal fall day!
SEE...Watkins Glen on a crappy fall day!
SEE...me snatching second instead of fourth into the bus stop at the Glen!

Do I destroy my motor? Find out by hosting my videos.
