2007 RT Remus Exhaust Upgrade Update w/photos

[switz]

Here is an update to the original thread. There is a very low freguency exhaust tone that is different to the OEM sound. You do hear it all the time and it is much more pronounced under accelleration. When quickly letting off the throttle, there tends to be some popping in the exhaust. The engine feels "quicker" when rolling on and off the power.

Here is a photo of the left front. Note NO crossover between the headers. The original crash bar bracket is still fastened to the engine, but that system is unusable because the new pipes are slightly larger in diameter and are bent differently than the OEM header with the Catalytic converter.

Here is the center section going into the front header. Note the free airspace above the exhaust system that used to filled with the Catalytic converter and heated up the transmission gears and oil.
