I just got my exhaust yesterday back from Travis at Levy Racing. This setup is the straight 3" pipe with the option of baffles. I am planning on seeing how the setup sounds without the baffles first.

The fitment is great! I will have to re-route the alternator wires though as they are very close to the header, but other than that simple to bolt up and I can reach all of the bolt positions without any problems.

I went with satin black, although there are other colors available.

My plan is to crank the car up on 11/3. I will take a video to share when its running. Also if you have questions about fitment or whatever don't hesitate to ask. I highly recommend this setup plus Gordon and Travis are great to work with. Travis threw a bunch of concepts at me and ultimately I wanted this simplicity and classic look of the straight pipe design and they came out great!

Thanks,
Alex

Thx for sharing - Very nice work. I see you are not running PS of PB's - same set up as me although I have AGR PS rack that I may go with before I put the body on. Are you planning PS or PS in the future?

Are you planning to install the speed sender etc as per 'Oldguy's' posts to address the stalling etc that others have experienced? I installed and have no issues to report - still gocart stage but runs very - very well.

I go back and forth on whether or not to install PS. If I do, I will go with Fast Eddie's electric rack. I still have room up front for a pump and the wiring. My plan is to autocross it a few times and decide if I need go for it or not.

Funny you mention the speed sensor- I am working on wiring it up as we speak! Worst case scenario I have to still get a tune in the future. Might be worth the extra bucks for the HP gains...
