I am a video creating newbie but in no way does the audio quality reflect the true sound of the exhaust. I'll make another with no music.

Either way the cutouts will blow the video microphone so won't really be able to tell anything anyway... Congrats on getting it done! Bet they sound awesome in person

I have all the wires in the trunk ready for the final patch which is connecting the red wire to a 12volt source. The simple truth is, I'm not good with wires! I've tried MULTIPLE PLACES and it seems like everyone out here wimps out and refuses the job.

The only guy that was willing wanted over 700 bucks just to install the red positive to a source! I know that common sense would say the BATTERY but here's my dilemma. If I install the red positive to the Battery, what type of INLINE FUSE would I need? I purchased a 20AMP, but i'm not sure if this would do the car no good or what?

I think if I remember correctly somebody said a 10AMP which they never had and this is why I went with a 20 amp fuse. Please somebody help who has them or knows this stuff! I'm really getting annoyed because it's been over a month .....I would of had a video up and running already.

I just need some insight! Again

Need to connect to a positive source (12v). I understand that there is a built in FUSE underneath the DRIVERS SEAT of our 2016/17 Camaros but I'm unable to get to that location TORX (I don't have the tools).

How do I access the SIDE BATTERY? What part would I need to purchase to connect to the battery? The parts provided didn't seem right? They seem like they would go underneath the seat? The part that I need I can get at a supply store to CRIMP? Not sure...Please help.
Email Steve with NoWeeds, he responds fast, he answered my question about going wireless.
stevekoenig@noweeds.net

Good luck, bro. I'll be saving up a bit to get after i pay my taxes. I'll post up the results of the wireless set up.

Also, Burly: just a tip, when making exhaust clips, leave out the music, and put the camera/mic minor distance away from the exhaust, otherwise the mic will be overwhelmed and not capture all the frequencies, just the louder ones.

Anyways hopefully I'll have everything done by TUESDAY.
It won't matter what mode the car is in will be the same as the noweeds are in front of the exhaust valves so it bypasses them.

First allow me to apologize I didn't mean to sound like an ass before. I should have asked for a video with no sound.


Second Sounds absolutely amazing I plan on doing this in the future is that stock headers and midpipe?

It's stock exhaust for now. I'll do LT headers later this spring. Should have some other vids later today.

Also I'm going to use an inline 10-amp fuse to connect one end to the other end as well.

1 - Will connecting the red wire to my car battery be a problem (like draining the battery) ????? Also would I need a specific size of this piece that goes onto the battery or are they all universal?


Called a Crimp Loop Connector...Just need to know what size I'd need or again are they universal? I really want to have a Video up for everyone from different angles! I got a GoPro5 coming guys with an external mic so once that arrives video will be uploaded.
Ring terminal, 10 amp inline fuse, soldered, shrink tube and wire conduit. It's recommended that the fuse be as close as possible to power source. I have noweeds controller directly connected to battery, not switched power source, and it's been about two weeks with no problem. I was concerned about battery drain but no problem so far and have had car sit for 3 days without starting.
