    I find my F355 with stock muffler to be overly loud already.

    With Fabspeed headers, high flow cats and this Tubi - Tube Only exhaust....was too loud....

    I had to replace it with a normal Tubi design as the wife refused to even let me start the car in the garage..... it rattled every dish and picture in the house.... :(

    Still have it in storage though...just in case ;)

    Any chance you'd like to sell? I want to have something for track only use. I was looking at the challenge exhaust which is around a grand or making my own - it's just straight pipes after all.

    Spice cover those expired wires in the picture I would think they'd melt.

    Is there an in-stock source for that exhaust? It sounds amazing and I would love to go to that. Wonder if Tubi would do a run if a few of us ordered?

    FYI, I called Tubi and they can still sell the tubes only exhaust, for...... $3,333. They said they would get back to me about the possibility of a group buy if there is interest for that.

    I am hanging on to it for now. They are hard to come by and you just never know. Might race the car someday....or lose the wife :)

    Yea, I seem to recall that they had some outrageous price for something so remarkably simple.

    Half that would be excessive for what it is.

    Update, heard back from Tubi, they were polite as can be but were not interested in a group buy at all.

    The 355 challenge straight through exhaust is available for around a grand, much better alternative cost wise. I plan to build my own for track use as even a grand for some straight pipes is ridiculous.

    I just called Daniel and ordered the challenge exhaust, should go nicely with the hyperflow cats I already installed and the Fabspeed upper bypass I need to order. The tubi cost is as Watson said "outrageous" and while I could make one for less, I don't need yet another project.

    Wish I was closer so I could here that bad boy when its installed. Folks posting video of an exhaust tone just dont cut it. You need to feel and smell it :)

    Where are you in VA? I'd like to hear it when you get it installed.

    I am about an hour north of Richmond, 25 min north of Fredericksburg. Don't mind if you come up.

    -Anybody want to buy a Tubi (standard Tubi exhaust), just not over the top enough for me so I am replacing it with the challenge.

    Any idea what's up with the intake in that picture? Only shows one box and a hose that runs somewhere, but I'm not sure where...

    Did you replace your secondary cat pipe yet with a straight through?

    Total cost for my little lot was £3500 fitted, the exposed wire picture was taken before the job was finished and tidied up, I'm just loving it

    How did you manage the CEL?

    Looking at the de-cat pipe I see you have pre / post O2 sensors so you must have a 5.2 car....curious.
