Here are a couple of systems and pics. I stayed mostly with the M3 / 5 as it is closer to our vehicle class.
SuperSprint exhaust on M5
Eisenmann Meisterschaft Exhaust on M3
Dinan exhaust on M3
AC Schnitzer on M3
Custom Titanium exhaust built for M3
ISS Forged exhaust on IS-F. For reference.
I could go on but you can see that longer tips on high performance exhausts are not unusual.

Ahh, yep. I can't think of any other exhausts besides M3/M5 though. I always see the long exhausts on BMWs though.
Anyway, I think it looks great both ways, but I do think that a little shorter looks better though.

I honestlt don't think they are sticking out too far, it gives it that look of aggressiveness without over doing it.
Thanks for extra pics FNMUPN8!

The GTR was by the shop yesterday for a shoot.
Everything going good.... We start disassemble on Wends. Paul has a TT Viper he's finishing and then we start on the new project.
Thanks!

Rob have you seen the Volks set up on his car. Freaking SICK!!!!
This is more of a night out on the town look vs a track look. Both set ups look crazy. Traffic Stopping Crazy!

So we put the IS-F back on the dyno today and the numbers looked even better. As anticipated the 6th gear pull was a little stronger then the 5th gear. We stand to our 25 to 30 WHP increase even though today we had 27 to 33 HP increases as we did in our original numbers.
We will also start testing on the street system and after a few design changes we are expecting the same power levels.
Should be SICK!
