Some new power
All of you may know I have the LX9 and F40 swap with some other mods that I had done at MMS. I wanted some more power. So I got what I always wanted...
and also am getting rid of the duels and going with these. 304 stainless.
let me know what you guys think.

Looks good. That should brighten up the engine bay some. I like the tips a lot.

How To: Cut Out your bumper for dual exhaust. First find yourself some cardboard or a sheet of paper even, and a pencil. fit it into the factory well and trace. Cut out the template that you traced and test fit it to make sure it all is the right size. If it is, mock it up on the other side, make sure you invert it as well. Measure off the front of the bumper to get your placement correct. You'll be taking about an inch and a 1/2 ish off the lip if I remember right. Trace your template onto the car, and cut with dremmel. Sandpaper down any rough spots and bam! exhaust hole.

Well those headers fit over the f40? I thought Mike's custom headers were the only ones that would fit?

I used to have tail tips like that, too. When the headers and SLP pipes and Magnaflow crossflow exhaust was put on, it seemed like the car's handling got better, like it was more balanced.

Yup. Both armor coat and black pacesetter clears. Mike was very shocked that they did clear.

Even with the Razzi bumper cover you still have to trim the original one. The Razzi cover attaches over the factory bumper cover. |

Looks good. Nice set up. Was the rear header hard to install? Got any pics from under the car?
