    Why not the "normal" way? In the diffuser? Like I had on my previous build:

    Go exhaust-less? Just 2 little dump tips way under the bumper almost out of sight and painted black.
    That would have been great, lol. Thanks anyway.

    I definitely need some kind of visible outlet somewhere I think. I know this might sound like I'm shooting down everyone's input but I really appreciate it, I'm just finnicky.

    I thought I would throw my two cents in the hat with the exhaust suggestions but how bout something similar to the Konigseeeeeeegggggg One:1 (whatever its called), emulate the shape of the centre section, maybe recess it a bit in the opening.
    I have no doubt whatever you come up with will be epic regardless of what route the pipe exits, keep up the awesome work... Z
    Hey dude, nice to meet you. Thanks so much, I'm glad you like it. I think I'll definitely have to do a good edit of how a centre exit would turn out. I'll post 'em all up when I have a few.

    handy with photoshop? I'm keen to see what you mean exactly.

    Boom tubes are hella cool. But I they can't be on street cars down here, so no good to me unfortunately. Sides of the bumpers is not my style. I think I'm going to do some photoshops of different centre exit styles and also quad oval tips out of the vents.

    That's a good suggestion about the diffuser. I was planning on doing that. If I don't put the exhaust there, I'll fill the hole with a motorbike radiator sourced trapezoidal oil cooler.

    That is the reason most people like the center exit setups. I also follow your logic but there isnt many options.

    If it was my car with a diffuser, id shoot the exhaust right out the sides of the bumper behind the rear tires....not so many people like that option.

    id also just make a pop off cover for that center exit and get the z setup with a cargo carrier hitch if you plan on doing any distance trips. i plan on putting one on my z as well, because unfortunately you cant haul extra tires and tools in just the hatch.

    Maybe side exit right in front of the rear wheels with either boom tubes or oval tubing to not lose to much ground clearance?

    Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I really appreciate the suggestions, it's been getting the cogs turning. Clearly a lot of support for centre exit.

Maybe even some oval tubing cut on an angle to make a pair of super long wide looking tips crossing each other like a X-Pipe. Remove the mesh and put some extra piping there to show the burnt stainless gold.

    My brain works better than my explaining skills...

    I've never liked the exhaust going through the vents but am thinking more about it because I simply can't find a centre exit I like. They all shit me, each and every one of them.



    the exhaust rings shit me but the potential is there, maybe with quad tips or something. handy with photoshop? I'm keen to see what you mean exactly.

    Quad tips in the middle might be a bit much but I'm all ears if you can photoshop!

    Id say you make to exits in the same shape as the hole in the diffuser.

    As if you were to make at single pipe shaped as the hole, but split in the middle getting two. would look sick imo
