Finally! Full Non-S Exhaust

I just got an e-mail from VIP Customs that their performance system is now a header back system with no cutting. Awesome!

Looks pretty sweet! Now someone needs to get a sound clip of it so I can decide if its worth it or to go custom!

They have a sound clip up although in the e-mail I got from them it said that the second cat was still in place when they took the video and that it will sound even better than the video suggests.

What would the sound difference *likely be* between the 2nd Cat-back version and the Performance version?

they now have a video of the "performance" exhaust on the site. I'm hoping they just used some injector cleaner or did a seafoam treatment to account for all that smoke...

I've seen another full supersprint exhaust for a justa here
http://www.eurosportdesign.com/c-133-mini-exhausts.aspx
of course it would be at the bottom of the page ... -_- but the only problem is that they are sold piecemeal, and pretty pricey, in my opinion (I'm a cheapskate though so I'm not entirely sure :P) Looks good though!
