No I don't have remus.. I don't have any mufflers lol... its jsut straight piped.. all stock resinators are intact however the way this exhaust is setup is from the last resinator (last closest to the rear bumper) everything was cut off, then from that last resinator it pipes out and then Y splited and then piped again and ran to each side and then the quad tips..
Im not mechanic, but does that affect your emissions and the obvious, performance?
just curious, why you went this route?
and was this a custom install? I may be interested going this route but worried about finding a mechanic/installer
thanks

actully not really... I didn't notice any loss.. if anyhting I think it might have helped with the weight reduction as the stock muffler is quiet heavy and not theres only light weight pipes opposed to an 85 pound brick lol

I've heard Hamann5's setup in person and I'd recommend it if you want something nice and loud (and inexpensive).

You should have gotten the M5 rear bumper with your mtech kit, only an additional $100 through Quad M. Then get a custom quad setup done. But thats just me. If you don't want quads now, trust me you will want them down the road.
