PBM oval exhaust system...

[Dustxking]

Local exhaust shop chop hangers, weld that 3" straight above frame or next to, chop flex and put it above bend in dp. 350 done.
Never scrape.

North florida cats, check out alan's discount muffler in gainesville.

My exhaust is nowhere near as baller as PBM though.

Glad someone else said it. This exhaust sounds like shit.

Ummm, that's how every SR20 with a straight pipe sounds...

Here's the deal guys. Cheapo's will never buy quality parts that are more expensive because they only see it as one part to another.

Why buy PSM arms when ISIS arms are way cheaper?

Why buy PSM knuckles when Godspeeds are way cheaper?

Why buy SPL subframe bushings when eBay ones are cheaper?

ETC, ETC, ETC.

It comes down to two things:

1) Reliability.
2) Supporting the people that continue to innovate and make cool new stuff for us. Not the people that copy the cool stuff and come out with cheapo versions.

Normally I'd agree....

But lets be honest. PBM did not invent oval exhausts nor are they the first to tuck an exhaust.

We are talking about a steel tube with a few spot welds, that's it. What would have been innovative is if PBM could have found a cost effective way to bring this to market. Anyone on here could have gone to a local and made an oval exhaust for $1200.

i disagree, mine didnt sound nearly that bad. Maybe it's because of a poor camera mic or something, but it just sounds weird.

this!

I'd buy this for 1200 if it was ti or something
I understand the RnD for the downpipe but that's it.

I wonder if this exhaust with fit next to an sr with a 350z transmission. Thinking of ordering a whole new exhaust setup.

Its gonna be tight near the flexpipe and the trans bellhousing. I actually had to shave down my KA transmission a little around 1 bolt hole to keep from contact.

Not sure why you didn't think this was for sale before. It's been on their site for years. All you have to do is call and ask for it to be made into the full cobra exhaust.
