Looks great. The sound seems nice and quiet with a good tone. Not too aggressive, which it's what I would want. Wish he would have given it a few more revs, but seems nice.

[@Element_lifestyle]

@@jeffwest5551 I’m loving it . Thank you for your message 🙏

FYI, some stainless steel is magnetic. There are various grades of stainless steel and depending upon the particular alloy, it can be magnetic. Ferritic stainless steels - these steels are magnetic primarily due to the presence of ferrite, a compound of iron and other elements. The crystals of ferrite and iron make this type of stainless steel magnetic. It is also important to note that some stainless steels with ferrite have a weak magnetic pull. Stainless steel grades 409, 430, and 439 are also known as ferritic stainless steels. Martensitic stainless steels - this category has many types of stainless steel that are magnetic. It is possible for martensitic stainless steel to have a ferromagnetic crystal structure if iron is present. The magnetism of martensitic steel is due to iron being the main component. Martensitic stainless steel has carbon trapped in its crystals are can be hardened to become extremely strong but have reduced chemical resistance compared to austenitic stainless steels. There are three grades of martensitic stainless steel - 410, 420, and 440.

Thanks for sharing, Miguel and Joseph. Looks like a nice piece of kit.

You’re welcome Jeff. Loving the catback so far 🙂✌️

[@ReadySetElement]

Jeff you are awesome!

[@daricefrost664]

I don't think I have ever seen the underside of a car so clean. It sounds great, I wish I lived closer to y'all. 😂

[@Element_lifestyle]

I’m keeping it clean 🙂👍

[@Mechanic83]

would of been nice to get some more revs and maybe a driving video of the exhaust !! everyone wanna hear the exhaust and we got .3 seconds lol

[@jeffwest5551]

I agree.

[@GHE2005]

That looks really easy but it did have some mod for ur cat cover. Really fast work Joseph. Nicely done. 👏🏽👍🏽

Stainless steel can be magnetic, depending on the grade of steel. 304 SS is not normally magnetic but can become slightly magnetic if cold worked 316 SS is not magnetic at all 409 - 420 SS is all magnetic 409 stainless is often used in automotive exhausts. It will surface rust some, but it won't completely corrode.

Good to know 🙏

What’s up VATO LOCO ! Great job J’ Miguel looking good!

[@danielcarvajal5477]

Sounds sweet!!❤

[@Element_lifestyle]

It does

[@cdotson0027]

Definitely sounds cool. I'm curious what is the purpose of the red tie bar? Is that to protect the subframe from bending?

[@MostlyBrenda]

Any performance improvement from this upgrade?

[@BK-gh9us]

I agree, I'm always interested in adding functional upgrades to my E.

[@MostlyBrenda]

I would not do it for just the sound. At $600 plus installation (difficult without a lift).@@BK-gh9us

[@bobbycampos6576]

Sounds amazing!!! I know what I’m getting next! 😹😹😜👍🏻

[@Element_lifestyle]

Christmas present ? 😎✌️

[@dmitryartemkin3245]

Super!

[@Chewy530]

Do you have any video of how it sounded before the install to compare? Im sure this will have a little deeper tone to it because of the bigger diameter.

[@Element_lifestyle]

I put it in this video, I’m loving this cat back . Really happy

[@MelonTL_YH2]

sounds cool!

[@Element_lifestyle]

It does

[@douglasanderson7980]

What model is replacement cat? Want to make sure I wouldn’t have any issue installing. My original was stolen too

[@Element_lifestyle]

Is the 1320 performance made for the elements

[@ReadySetElement]

Miguel this is legit!!! It looks and sounds amazing! How much roughly would this cost to do ?

[@Element_lifestyle]

Here is the link of the part and the installation around $90 1320performance.com/products/catback-exhaust-for-03-11-honda-element-lx-ex-fwd-awd-4wd Sometime there is a group buy in the element fb groups for around $400 to $500

[@Chewy530]

Do you have video of how it sounded before the install to compare the sound quality? Looks really good.

[@dcdc7192]

Awesome!!!!

[@Element_lifestyle]

🙂👍

[@billyshelton78]

Need a test drive demo.. does it have any drone inside?

[@Element_lifestyle]

I like be a good idea. In been driving for a few weeks after this video and honestly I like this product and the sound of it.

[@billyshelton78]

@@Element_lifestyle that’s cool.. thought about putting one on mine, I’ve only had mine For 3 weeks. Thinking about the 1320 motor mounts for mine.

[@Element_lifestyle]

@billyshelton78 nice! I like this cat back a lot, for the motor mount you have to consider it will has vibration feel to it.

[@Mendz530]

⁠@@Element_lifestyleHow does the noise feel inside the car?

[@SANTANGELO88]

Is there drone inside? 🤔

[@SaycoPworrell]

Think about getting one for my E, how long will this last?

[@SANTANGELO88]

Is there drone on the inside when driving?

[@jonmccormick8683]

$600 -and they are only making 16 sets for this first batch.

[@Element_lifestyle]

Check on the element Facebook groups. Some guy does the group batch and they end up costing like $500

[@douglasanderson7980]

Which fb group?

[@stevestevenson827]

what are you doing with your stock exhaust? I have a yonaka exhaust on mine. I want to convert back to stock.

[@Element_lifestyle]

I’m selling it for $90

[@douglasanderson7980]

Has mpg changed?

[@Element_lifestyle]

I got 23 mpg when it was full stock when I drove it from WA to CA. Since then I been adding lot of mods and didn’t have a chance to drive it for trips yet. That’s something I will have to check.

[@Oldtimecarpenter77]

Waste of money!

[@ct4cf]

Where's your anti-seize compound on the reinstalled fasters man!
