It pretty much just sees the track and some driving around here and there cruising. I put maybe a 1000 miles on a year

Yeah I can tell it's loud, when it's overloading the camera mic at an idle.

BTW, what size cam is that, what idle speed?

If it ever gets to loud for you at cruizing speed just install a Magnaflow #14163 (6" dia.,14" case L.) or a #14162(6" dia., 6" case L.), or a Kooks #QCR400 (5.25" dia.,6" case L.). None of these will restrict any flow, just tone it down a bit for cruizing.

I may have to do this to my car for the simple fact I hate the people I live with in my building.

I really like them, fitment, finish, price, and especially considering they gave my car better ground clearance which is great!
BTW, I just got my car running last friday, so I really haven't had them on my car any longer then you.

I had a dumped setup on my car for a little while. The setup is QTP LT's, Kook's 3" ORY, 12" section of stainless pipe, 3" dynomax bullet dumped before axle. Here are a couple of comments:
-The exhaust was LOUD even at idle. I live on a semi tight street. EVERY time I would pull out, my neighbors car alarm across the street would go off. Sometimes, it would set some alarms off basically idling costing down a small hill on my street.
-There was the typical rasp area in the 2200-3000 rpm range somewhere. It sucked because this car is a 100% street car and when cruising around town with stop signs and what not, you hit this rpm range a lot
-WOT the sound was awesome- like no other
-Weight- it was about 1/3 the weight of the Magnaflow catback that is currently on the car





Here is an idle clip (I don't have any cruising videos):

I wanted to have the exhaust exit closer to the side of the car, and minimize drone/exhaust build up under the car by pointing the turn-down as straight back as possible, plus the 90*bend is a mandrel bend so it's not causing any flow restriction.
