Exhaust tips:

 

Great detail!

Sorry to ask but what is up with the exhaust? Why does he have 2 upper and 2 lower exhaust pipes it looks funky.

 

Man that is a sweet car! Great job on the detail!

 

Heres a pic of my clients GT. Only two tips. What was that guy thinking?

 

Very nice work, but yes, very odd exhaust!

 

Thanks!

The extra tips are for the electric cut outs.

This one is pushing 700 HP and he plans on going with a 1200 HP TT set up.:crasy:

 

Thats fine and all, but there's got to be a better way to do it. Thats just nasty looking.

 

Great job and great looking car.

 

nice work.. isn't it a pain to get in and out of that gt.. if a car is parked closer than 2 feet for get about it.. Jeremy Clarkson had one and it was in the shop for 7 months.. he never got to drive it more than a 1000 miles.. he LOVED it when he drove it for top gear.. he just got a lemon.. hard to believe they would give him a lemon.. i would have done everything humanly possible to make sure a guy like Jeremy was taken care of esp with all his influence in the business.. just sucks he got a lemon..what is really hard to believe is that it's the same engine pretty much as the one in the ford lightning.. they modded it for about 100 more hp though i believe but the block is the same..nutty.either way it's an awesome car!!! great lines!!! great heritage!!!

 

Great start. So far so good. Looking forward to the finished pictures. You must have so much fun doing the cars you do...:thumb:

 

It is without a doubt the most unfomforable car I've ever ridden in. After an hour, my back was so sore, I felt it for the next three days.

 

Good job, but what you said makes no sense... Electricle Cut-out? Is it still Supercharged? or has it been Twin-Turbo'd? If its Turbo then thoese tips are probaly for the Waste-Gate...

 

I love that car. The ONLY domestic sports car I would ever buy. I need to polish a few more cars before that'll happen.

The car looks great but those extra tips just doesn't look right.

 

Wow what a change you made in that paint! I do agree with everyone else on the exhaust tips too.

 

Why would it not make sense?

The car is supercharged.

You are obviously a fan of imports.

Cut outs are used to bypass the muffler creating an open exhaust.

You just flip the switch and the electic motors open the butterfly valves, which is alot easier than crawling under the car to uncap it.

Make sense now?

 

Should of installed dumps....that looks horrible.

 

I took these today at the Cars For The Cure show. The 08 Viper ACR I did yestersay was also in the show and took home trophies for best in class and judges choice.

I have 21 hours into this one.
































Thanks for looking!

 

Hi Richie, I really like the out come. You did a beautiful job. No wonder you get to work on some awesome cars...:thumb::thumb::thumb:

 

Please start doing your homework before you post this nonsense. Yes, Jeremy's GT was in the shop. The real reason? An alarm system. It had absolutely nothing to do with the car itself. This has been discussed numerous times on the show, so it's no secret. The car was not a lemon.
