I bought a new Bursch a few years back, I was never really happy with the tone or overall appearance of it ( It's for sale cheap).

After getting an upclose look at the Triad on Rhodyguys car I contacted Dave at Triad West .

I drove to his shop, was greeted with " there's beer & soda in the fridge let's have some fun". Beautiful shop with a nice lift, Dave takes great pride in his product.

I ended up hanging most of the day talking teeners, with Dave & his wife, Eric & Logan. Nice way to spend a sunny afternoon.

My car is very stock in appearance, I didn't want to cut the rear valance for the dual out. Dave suggested his "Sleeper" Solo II exhaust.

This may be old news to some of you but I was unaware of this configuration.

He turns the passenger side outlet 90 degrees down , standing upright you don't see the outlet.

A beautiful product, really a nice low tone( & it added 30HP (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

Here's a few pics of Dave doing his thing, the gang & the final product.

What does your car weigh, JP?

That looks FUN! Even with the smoke. Hell, that makes it better!



oh- I love the sound of my triad too. It compelled me to resolve all exhaust leaks and achieve perfect valve adjustment so all I ever hear is that deep song from the triad. Man its sweet.
