Does RE Diablo cure the hanging balls look....

inTgr8r · 05-07-2010, 06:12 AM

...or just change them to polished 'bling' ?

I'm waffling back & forth between SS race & the RE Diablo.
One concern with the RE Diablo is the cans are still pretty deep below the tips.
I haven't been able to find many good ass pics of these to tell if it still has a nut slinger look.

Anyone got any good, straight on ass shots?

...Pic borrowed from RacerBruce showing rounded bottom below tips.

that is more of a shot from below so it may be deceptive, i have the SS race and it helps the problem a lot, sounds great too although most member seem to go with the RE Diablos

inTgr8r · 05-07-2010, 09:14 PM

^Thanks, I've seen & heard the SS race & agree.
BUT.. there are a lot of good reports on the RE Diablo too.
That's what is making it a tough decision.

The look of the rear could impact my decision, but I haven't seen a good straight on ass pic to held decide.

I'll attempt to post rear-shots soon (may be a few days)....IMHO it does not look out of balance - at all.

The quite larger diameter tips, and the great 304 stainless look is SO awesom....but the SOUND....it is SO perfect....not too loud....perfect....sounds like a SPORTS CAR!!

The only thing that Ive noticed about my Diablos is that they are a 1/4 to 1/2" shorter than the SS's. This causes the tips not to stick out as far. But of course they are a bigger diameter which makes it look so good. Tough call.

Z4Murder · 05-10-2010, 12:52 PM

i just ordered my re diablos, i think its a better look than the SS

BMPDesign · 05-10-2010, 12:54 PM

Hmm...How bout this one?

And if that doesn't work Italy has several of their dyno run videos available:

Does a pretty good job of it. Let me know if you want any other angles

The__J__Factor · 05-10-2010, 04:54 PM

And a side on pic

inTgr8r · 05-10-2010, 06:31 PM

good stuff... thanks

That rear shot looks much better than a lot of the low level under shots I've seen posted.
Looks more like nits on a nats nuts now (small) & MUCH better than the OE gonads.

RBull · 05-23-2010, 08:34 AM

^let me know when you might pull the trigger.

What... don't wanna show the world your bollocks?

Will do.
For now, likely only if someone is parting out.
But before next spring for sure.

jjy2 · 05-23-2010, 07:53 PM

we really need to do a group buy for the Diablos

Next spring would work nice for me.

Short clip of my exhaust from the other week. Easy drive by.

Ditto. Waiting to do the more expensive mods next year, and I'd be interested if there was a decent discount with a GB.

some of us girls LIKE that look... Just sayin'
