After giving plenty of thought to the exhaust and enjoying the Supercup rear sections, I decided to go out on a limb and create my own. The wide body C2S is limited to exhaust choices and I wanted to keep within the factory look for various PCA events.
Starting point:

Split canisters showing filler. Yum.

Taking a look at the Stock Gillette exhaust from my C2S and comparing it to the turbo muffler, I figured the best option is to simply clean up the airflow. Notice how the turbo muffler has perforated sections that provide a clean pass through when exhaust is forced (WOT) but no cross tube (possible motor sound option as the car is optioned.
Split C2S muffler equipped with Motor Sound Option:

Removed internals that simply “dumped” gasses into chamber and forced them out the exit tube:

New elbows and another diction of perf tube in place:


Lastly, sent them out for a complete polish. Yeah, I know they will not stay that way, but if I keep on top of it and limit the amount of rain driving, they might pick up a nice bronze/blue hue as with my previous rides.


Next up- Dyno with Supercups vs. these. I expect a raspy sound as with the Supercups, but these look closer to stock and will permit the addition of the Fister Wide Ovals!
