930 GT3 Style Tail Pipe Pix

RarlyL8 · RarlyL8's Garage

Did some adjustments and had a great morning for pictures. Went for a drive and was challenged by an AMG GW500? What the hell is that anyway? Had to be the absolute ugliest vehicle I have ever seen.
Anyway, here are some pics for you. As always there were compromises in fit/form/function but it turned out pretty good.

That is just _wicked_ Brian.

Kudos, as always.

Happy with my dual out of yours, but I'll tell ya had this been an option back this summer I just might have had quite the tough quandary on me hand.

My systems are modular. If you ever want a change of pace you simply cap the passenger's side outlet and replace the driver's side tailpipe with the center outlet tailpipe. So all you have to buy is a center out tailpipe and a cap. Pretty cool if I say so myself.

Looks sweet Brian, how did the AMG challenge go?!

The AMG deal was odd. We started at the base of a curvy 7 mile hill with very few side roads all having stop lights. There was a small hurd of cars that were caught at the bottom. When the light turned green everyone bolted! It was like the start of the old time car races! Man that was wierd. The AMG jungle wagon was in the lane next to me, about 3 deep, and just stomped it every time he got near me. After the first mile of that I backed off and kept pace while the others were weaving in and out. By the 4 mile mark it was down to 5 vehicles. All were aggressive with the jungle buggie breaking out to lead. I got cut off by a slower driver and decided this was all too weird and it was time to chill out. The jungle buggie turned off into a gated community at the top of the mountain and everyone else calmed down for the trip down the hill. It was a strange case of heard mentality. Never seen it in those numbers before. Would love to catch him out alone sometime ...

Very Beautiful Brian! Love it!

Is that a dual outlet muffer with the tips in the center or the wastegate pipe and single exhaust each having a pipe?

Either way, it looks cool!

Beautiful work, Brian. Where did you find a rear valance with no cutouts on the left or right?

He sells those - fiberglass with no cutouts (you cut the way you want) . . .

Looks like 1 pipe exiting to the right with a split tip on the end.

Yes the twins are turbo exhaust only. The waste gate has a stubby dump pipe aimed under the engine.

Yes Eric after over a year I finally got back to this design and finished it. Everything looks simple but never is. So many angles to consider for the perfect fit and look. You will notice the tailpipe is 2 piece. That is due to rotational angle needed to offset any irregularity in the angle of the 180 bend off the muffler. That bend is adjustable via the spacer seen attached to the muffler body. You can move the location of the tailpipe up or down and rotate the twins to line up horizontle with the bumper. This setup can tuck up under the bumper or rotated downward to come out below the stock valance.

Yes I sell uncut fiberglass valances or will custom cut as well.

Gelandewagon. Weird -

Yea, I assumed the AMG and the 500 or 550 designation meant big bucks but man is that thing UGLY. If typical physics can be applied there is no way on hell it should be able to out manuver a 2700 pound 911 with 13" wide tires. Made for an entertaining trip up the mountain though.

U gotta be kidding... this thing?

Actually, the AMG version has a 507 Hp supercharged vee-ate, but jeez

Guess rednecks may have more money down there, but they are still rednecks... 'not gonna let that thar poorsha pass me...'

Yep that was the Borgmobile. Looked like a Scion B for the wealthy.
You never know what the story is when these things happen. I think sometimes they just want to see you boost it.

I'll venture to guess that's typically the case. Well, least is with me ANY time I see something 'cool' on the road, regardless of what I happen to be driving at the time (rental, inlaws' car, etc.). Paulie just wanna hear ya <<>>

I say thumbs up for him being a gamer.

8-)

now

Color me the odd duck, I've always dug GWagens and their ridiculously not so subtle militaristic motif - tho I do I find an ///AMG version a bit senseless. If I had the $$$ why not I s'pose. I mean, if you 'need' utility / space and have to have such a large vehicle, kudos for it having Brembos and going like H*LL to boot. Guess I'm weird. The side pipes are a nice touch heh heh...
