Nice review dude,

What paint did you use exactly to paint your rear mufflers? because I was thinking about doing the same thing but wasn't sure how it would come out, but by the looks of yours it looks nice.

From further up

"I just used Rustoleum High Heat. Lowes has a sale on the one that has "25% More" which was enough to cover both mufflers"


I might plastidip after reading the comments up above, sounds like it might hold up to the low temps

Your sig says that you have the FI Catback.... are you running Sebring Tuning cans and tips?
If so, what are your thoughts on temperature? Honestly, mine don't get that hot.

Great job Mike!

Great pics and video and not to mention even grabbing a dyno. The Invidia sounds great I am sold on the exhaust now.

Looks great! This makes me want to do a diffuser or overlay even more. I love the fact that the mufflers are hidden too, I kinda want to do this for my new setup. Good job!!

FWIW, after a 35 mile drive today, mostly freeway with the last 10 miles or so at 40-50mph, i went and measured the temps on the exhaust.

Ambient is about 75 degrees.

From tip to cats:
Tip - 106.5 F
Mufflers - 110.5
Muffler pipes - 144
Resonators - 89
Pipes to resonators - 134
Flex section - 201
Cat heatshields (by the vents) - 345

Nice!

See? The cans and tips are no hotter than a kid's forehead during flu season....

So far so good and we've been breaking 100 degree record days for the past couple of weeks. It also held up fine at the HPDE a couple weeks ago. That paint isn't going anywhere.
