Clear Image exhaust!

Hey so I got my Clear Image exhaust installed today! 3" downpipe, 3" exhaust with a magnaflow muffler. No resonator. It Sounds amazing. I am really impressed with the quality of the whole system. I chose to go with a custom tip, that too also looks amazing. Performance wise I can feel the turbo spool faster, and for some reason my shifts feel a lot smoother. I was also very impressed with the quality of the service. Dan seems to be really deticated to not only making real quality parts but also making sure you are satisfied as a customer. He won't bullshit you! I would recomend this exhaust to anyone who wants quality, great welds (thanks Todd), great sound, and efficient attention to detail. I will definitely be a repeat offender at Clear Image!!!!!!

Thanks
Andy Anderson

Thank You Andy, for coming down today!
Your car so far for me, has sounded the best! ( Daniel, your car sounds great also, this is just that tiny bit better )
I know everyone has their own preference, but this is the kind of sound that hits that sweet spot for me, WICKED!

Glad I am not the only person who felt this too.

I have a 3 inch catless tbe with a magnaflow res and muffler so it is super mellow and super deep, still mellow under load.

It is unreal how much smoother it shifts though...

Doesn't sound too bad. I could tell the mic quality isn't the greatest, but it sounded nice and deep.

But, I'll take the Evo thanks.

Sounds great man. Damn I like the "twisties" video....Im jealous I want roads like that around me.

In the shot from a dig did you NLS or does the exhaust pop like that under normal shifting? It sounds sweet.

It sounds so good in the flyby when you shift off camera.

That evo is tuned full exhaust turbo back exhaust, CAC piping. He is pushing probably 300 hundred to all four wheels. I am not tuned yet. I really am enjoying this exhaust.

That is strange I noticed the same thing too. Also my car seems to bog less when I ease off the clutch at really low RPMs. Better breathing I guess.
