Finally installed the Q300!!!
Damn it, I got fed up this morning and had enough of looking at the exhaust every time I left for work, so I decided I couldn't wait until Thursday to install it (initial plan) so I rang my cousin and asked him if he's willing to help out today and sure enough he was . I just drove the car back from the work shop so it's still running outside for the heat wrap to cure (that stuff smells nasty when it first heats up) Anyway I added pics so enjoy, and I'll let you guys know how I get along:
Nasty old exhaust:
Check out how rusty the Berks HFC's are, they've only been on for 5 months, I wish I could have heat wrapped them.
BTW the Y-pipe is not wrapped because I might get the new one.
Do you like our little workshop? My cousin's idea , we're still getting bits and pieces it's only been up for like one and a half months.
P.S. Driving back the car was super raspy lol but only at very low speeds and only at low RPM, this should hopefully go away once I clock some miles

I most certainly will be
Yeah the lift has helped out sooooo much, it's my cousin's place so I get to go around every now and then
I like the sound already, I mean it's a bit raspy at very low speeds, but when I'm driving at my normal speeds it's a beauty and the down shifts sound awesome. I actually went to grab some food and as I was waiting in the drive thru the exhausts/ heat wrap started smoking lol, it looked like they were burning for a sec, but it quickly went away.
Can't wait for tomorrow drive to work

Well currently at very low speeds it is still a bit raspy, but you have to consider I've only installed the exhaust yesterday, I'll give it at least another week or so of hard driving and see if it changes everything.
Also don't forget I haven't wrapped the Y-pipes, HFCs or back box. Only the piping between the Y-pipe all the way to the pipes for the back box. After like 2,000rpm the raspness is pretty much zero, so consider driving with the exhaust for a week or so will reduce this even more.

(what it says on fedex) anyways i didn't plan on heat wrapping mine. i could justify spending another 120+ for no performance gains. but i dont know it would be really nice to keep it mint with the heat wrap on it. what are your thoughts? i will post pics and sound clips. defratos do you have any sound clips for us?
btw that shop is kicka$$!

As for sound clips I was thinking of taking some today but TBH it won't do the exhaust justice because it still hasn't broken in yet. Hopefully in a week or so I'll post some up.
Pics of them on the car will come hopefully sometime this week when I can leave work while the sun is still out
