Since everyone else is talking exaust...

Would anyone know how hard it would be to make Epic have side exiting exaust? Have the tip leave right before the rear wheel wells on both sides. I'd cut into the ground effects for a real custom look. I just need to know would i have to get rid of the muffler all together, would it be smog legal, and most importantly, would i lose/gain/break even perfromance wise? This is kinda retorical cause i wouldn't be able to do this for quite a while but it's been a want of mine for like ever.

you wont pass smog, nor will it be street legal. the exhaust has to exit behind the rear wheels. if you really wanna do it though, i'd get some LTs then run those into an X pipe than some dynomax mufflers like adam and have them go right out the site.

Well that sucks. But tell me why it wouldnt' be legal. I always thought as long as you don't screw with the catalitic converter or it position *cough* *cough* Caleb *cough* *cough* then it dont' matter what you do beyond that. Hell, if it wasn't for it being a noise issue cops can't do anythign about you not having a muffler at all. Am i wrong?

Actually that right there is the reason. Yall knwo the Viper is my dream car. I bout a little 1:18th scale model of a RT/10 back when i was like 14 and fell in love with it and that exaust. So whn i say i wanted side exiting exaust forever - thats pretty much the truth! I wanted it before i even had a car or knew anything about them.
