Ok, the exhausts sound good, but lets not go overboard. They don't even come close
to sounding like a V8. An LS2 with Flowmasters on it is a thing of beauty. Me personally,
I bought this car for the style, not the performance or sound. This is one badass
looking car.
Franz (solstice designer) asked if I had the V8 in my car. If you are ever out this way, I'll take you for a ride and you can tell me what it sounds like. Decel on the GT exhaust is flat out mean especially on the 2.4L.

The solstice one "MIGHT" fit. We have never tried crossing them over.

as someone on the sky forum asked if they could put the stock tips and they said that they wouldn't. the tips are unique to the gt system and are part of it's uniqueness
Yep, its kind of our signature tip, same as our Porsche 996 GT exhaust.

I wasn't a fan of the square tips from the factory so we opted to go with a unique and harder to make tip for our sky gt system. The square tips reminded me of the late GM cars where they their car designs looked like space ships.

Thank you for the info. Eloy, can you measure the center point of the tips for the Solstice exhaust and let me know what the approximate adjustment tolerances would be to the left or right. Also, is there is anything else different between the Solstice exhaust versus the Sky exhaust? If I ordered the Solstice exhaust would you be able to put the "stealth exhaust" tips on it for me? I understand you don't like the "space ship" look but I do. In no way am I trying to hack up your exhaust, however, I am trying to keep the factory look. Please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Sorry, I wouldnt be able to do that. The systems took us several months to put together. We've even changed perforation diameter inside the exhaust to get the sound we want. I wouldnt be able to fit the square tips on the GT system. Besides, I have no idea how it would sound with the square tips as we even put perforations inside the GT tips for sound tone.
We tested the GT exhaust on Cerebus' car and it got 12wtq gain and 4whp gain. On my 2.4 before it was turbo, I made 168whp from GT exhaust, dp and RPi ram air intake.
Heres a picture of the exhaust on the car from behind.

I watched the dyno run and drove the car around with the GT exhaust on my 2.4 Sky. I definitely felt the big chunk of midrange rpm torque gain the dyno showed. Kept chripin in the first couple gears when I really didnt feel like I was trying to.
Ah, that actually looks pretty good like that. If you can only get the trim covered up a little. Do you have an idea of what you want the honeycomb to look like?
Hey Eloy
I'd like it to look similar to the front grilles>>Rather than 1" X 1/2" thick I'd prefer 3/4 X 1/4 to maybe 3/8' thick. PVC since you can shape it with a heat gun & can plasticweld if need be. But so far all I've found is 1/4" It will be flush with the body. Also adding a panel underneath to direct air under the bumper rather than into it. So if you know anyone, do tell.
