Just laying here thinking what to make? Keep the valve or no?
3 tips of course, will likely stick with all v-bands because they seal the best and in stainless steel.
80mm pipe size again probably. anything you guys want to see?
What size is the factory exhaust diameter? Just curious. Also valved exhaust would be awesome. With a black chrome tip

Definitely 3 tips, equal diameter would be great. Having an option for black or Titanium burnt tips would be fantastic.

I like the idea of keeping the valve for more stock-like application and tamer daily cruising. Would it still be controlled the same as it is stock where it is only opening in R+ and wot?

Decided to go a custom exhaust shop to do a mod on the exhaust. Both resonators deleted, mufflers deleted, and the active exhaust valve was bypassed. Actually sounds better in person and happy with it as a temp until more options come out. There is drone but I believe it’s bearable, for now. Lol I’ll get a better video for you guys and pics this weekend.

Any chance you can get a video inside your car with windows up and down.

3 tips of equal diameter.
Not a fan of the bigger middle one? Think we should have the slip on tips so you can mix and match?


I'm in for a true 80mm all the way and Ss. I'm in the market for exhaust, ready to buy. I got a dp and front pipe waiting in boxes, just need the right exhaust. I've already ruled out a few that have come out. Take my money đź’°
Our FK8 was 80mm and full SS. it cam with the FP though so we could keep a true 3" unit.

Let me check my notes and get back to you.
Definitely 3 tips, equal diameter would be great. Having an option for black or Titanium burnt tips would be fantastic.

unsure, if we kept OEM controls then yes, that would be the cheaper/easier option. will have to explore that.

Mix and match would actually be a pretty cool idea.

Got a meeting with the team on this project in about 2 weeks and will bring in all of your guy's ideas.

This is great, Milltek has quite a bit going on with their system if you haven’t seen what they’re up to…. Including potentially a driver controllable valve option…. Would be good to take some of their cues.

If you guys can get it sounding like the Si exhaust somehow I’d be in love ❤

Milltek's is great! I'm still loving it.
