2Simpletons Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Hey all, Just got done installing the Perrin CBE to go with the Perrin DP. I am so impressed with this exhaust. The quality is awesome (welds, flanges, fit, hardware, gaskets). It fit absolutely perfectly. The tips are both centered perfectly (within a 1/4 of each other) and the tips both stick out the exact same distance from the bumper (within a 1/4 inch of each other.) To the naked eye, it's perfect. It took about an hour to install (nice having the DP already installed.) All of it lined up the first time and did not require tweaking. The sound is just SICK. It sounds SO nice. Very low rumble with some loud pops on decel (thanks to no cats.) Very classy sounding, not like the STi. It has a nice tone within the car - a little louder for sure, but nothing obnoxious. The wife is absolutely in love with the sound! After all, it's her car, hehe. Performance-wise (I did an ECU reset) I noticed a HUGE improvement! Butt-dyno says at least 15AWHP. What I can't get over is how smooth the car runs now. The hesitation/balking crap is gone as far as I can tell. I mean the car just pulls hard now. So smooth. And it's not even Protuned yet!! That comes in 2 weeks (we're getting both cars done same day hopefully.) Disclaimer: No sound clip, yes we know the car's dirty, and yes it needs some Pinks or iONs, and yes the dog's eyes really are green.) Dang, I'm excited, can you tell!?!?

2Simpletons Posted January 4, 2006 Author Share Posted January 4, 2006 I'll try n get a couple sounds clips up. How do you post a sound clip from a .avi video? Or rather how do you post a .avi video? Putfile.com? Never posted vids or sound clips before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

specinvstr Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 That looks awesome. Where did you get it from? Looks like the Perrin is hit or miss when it comes to fitment issues. Glad you got a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHLEG Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Did I see a resonator in the straight, post DP, pre Y section? I thought this exhaust didn't have a resonator and I had thus ruled it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
