Vibrant makes nice stuff and your buddies work is top notch

[WTP]

Great craftsmanship! Super nice car! Diffidently the right sound. 

[markmac]

Nice work.

2.5 is a bit on the big boy size for an M10, but it looks and sounds great.  Your friend is talented and Vibrant is an 02-friendly supplier!

Nice, what shop is this at?? Might have to hit them up!

[Lucky 7]

Nice!  Looks and sounds great.
 

That’s almost exactly what I did for my M20.  I used the MSDS shorty headers, but otherwise 2.5 stainless with Vibrant resonator and muffler. It’s loud, but it’s a good sound. +1 for Vibrant. 
 

Did you do mandrel bends or crush bends?

 

Here’s mine. Tons of work, but fun project:

So you guys have both vibrant resonator and muffler? 

[Lucky 7]

I do. I’m curious about that in the OP’s system, too. Sounds nice for sure. 

[Chris Josol]

yeah used mandrel bend and extra muffler to keep the noise inside down etc sounds amazing.

Sweet. Thanks for sharing the pics and videos @Chris Josol. Great work!

[72MetallicMalaga]

@Lucky 7 do you have video of yours running as well?

I was thinking about running just the vibrant ultra quiet resonator, but wanted to see what your setup sounds like too. 

[Lucky 7]

Sure. These videos are a few years ago before I finished the rest of the car, but the motor and exhaust are final condition.
 

The first video gives you the best idea of sound, even though it’s surging and barely running.
