I'm assuming the cat bypass system will not pass an emissions test, what about the sport cat system?

Thanks!
Correct, the Catbypass pipes are not emissions compliant. A set of Sport Cats will have no problem going through emissions other than passing CARB certification in CA, and potentially NY.

Ordered. I have the OEM skids. But the pucks look really effective. Make something for the LT please.

They'll match the exceptional wall art you guys made.

While on that topic, the Aston and McLaren logos are way less than half the size of the BMW and Ferrari logos. A little bias maybe? Kidding but make bigger ones and I'll buy another set. Don't make me post them side by side. They are amazingly well made. Fine job. Other than the size of course...

Peanut gallery, please refrain from the Freudian comments. It's tough, I know.
As soon as we get another LT in I will get a set made up; I will let you know as soon as that happens. We have the ability to make custom designs and sizes for the wall art, so it wouldn't be an issue to make some bigger scaled ones for you. I will shoot you a message to get those done for you.
 
Obviously sound is subjective, but I think it's perfect. The in car videos with the windows down are deceiving probably becasue the mic is trying to reduce wind noise. The car is louder throughout the rev range, but is most noticeable at lower RPMs. You hear the turbos a lot more too which is what I was hoping for. Overall, I think it's perfect. No drone, not too loud, but loud enough to let you know that the car is what it is.

Perfect! We're glad you're happy with your new setup!
 
Very happy with it! I put some more miles on the car yesterday, and it really changed the driving experience for me.
I love that you can hear more of the turbo spooling up and down. My car has standard exhaust, and I really don't want louder, but the noises you're getting in that video are fantastic.

Ara_LA sent us this shot of his install of a prototype system. Looking good in a black suit!

We went out and shot some video today, and will continue to do so until the official product launch.
Looks great! Can you give us some performence numbers please? I know you haven't released the final product yet but I'm sure you have some numbers so far...

Thanks!
