PART DESIGN
In-house designed and engineered using FARO ARM laser scanning technology for precise fitment
3.0" T304 Stainless Steel Mandrel Bent, Brushed Tubing with 1.25mm wall thickness
Dual 2.5" Tailpipe Sections with Tig-Welded Merge Pipe and Laser-Cut ECS Logo Plate
Lighter weight than the OEM catback exhaust:
OEM catback (without tips) - 42 lbs
ECS Valved catback (without tips) - 33 lbs (-9 lbs weight savings)
ECS Non-Valved catback (without tips) - 31 lbs (-11 lbs weight savings)
T304 Stainless Steel 12mm barbed round stock exhaust hangers Tig-Welded in OE locations for precise fitment. A rubber exhaust hanger bushing is included for the rear subframe location for additional support.
Strategically placed slip joints provide the most adjustability to obtain perfect fitment
VALVED MUFFLER:
Tested multiple muffler designs to achieve the most desirable exhaust notes with the largest delta between valve closed and valve open driving experiences
Valve Closed Routing - 3-chamber perforated reduction tubes with stainless steel wool packing material provides a sporty driving experience without causing excessive resonance, volume and performance loss
Valve Open Routing - Straight-through 3.0" perforated tube with stainless steel wool packing material provides the most unobstructed flow path for race-inspired driving experience to maximize volume
Vacuum-actuated exhaust valve provides outstanding reliability in the harshest conditions. Unlike electronic servo motors that are prone to failure, our exhaust valves have been tested in thousands of applications and have proven to be reliable.
NON-VALVED MUFFLER:
Straight Through "Turbo Style" Muffler
In-House designed to provide a sporty driving experience like no other
Perforated core with stainless steel wool packing for sound absorption
Designed to maximize ground clearance while still being compatible with aftermarket components such as our ECS Tuning Rear Subframe Brace.
