How did you extend them? Did you cut into them and add more length to them or did you replace the tubes altogether?

I ran new hoses and extended the wires.

I have some Stinger Road Kill pro here and was going to order some of the B-quiet.

Hey Tim, to run the new hoses, when you 'unlugged' the old/original ones from the evap canister, was there gasoline in the hoses, or are they just for gases/fumes? Still wating for pics when you get a chance. Thanks

There may be a little gas (drops) in there. It's mainly just for fumes.

I still have to order the B-quiet so it may be a little while. I've been so busy at work and with the family my car has been on the back burner.

Sounds good, as soon as my garage is tired and needs a break I'll call.

Hey Tim, in the second pic, where did you get that heat wrap/shield? I checked at Advance Auto Parts with no luck. And you have no heat problems with the exhaust and the evap hoses/wires? Also, with your evap box in the spare tire well, your spare fits over the box? I have OEM 17's and I tried it and it doesn't work, do I have to have a 19" rim? Thanks

The heat wrap I had left over from the turbo install because I put a ton of it up front. I got it online a long time ago.

I'm not sure if an 18" will fit or not. I think it would.

I'm thinking about changing out my mufflers for a pair of HKS carbon Ti.


Thoughts?

Here it is on a 350z single exhaust though. Sounds alright, not enough bass in it, like the dual hi-power. (could be the vid though)

Those cans look nice (no punn intended) too bad you won't really be able to see them under the car.

Those are different than the universal ones I'm looking at. Between the muffler, larger pipe and lower compression mine will be deeper.
