Real nice! That is a very unique setup. Sounds good too, but we need more evidence.

How much louder would that get with say a with heads & medium cam? That's the first exhaust I've heard that makes me really think about trying something other than the trusty SLP D/D

The second sound clip (idle andrevs) was taken from about 10 ft from the car. The first clip (which was merged onto the end of the second clip) was taken from within the car on an easy 1,2,3 shift without revving to high (1st went by quick due to Nittos spinning).
Today, I slammed through the gears for the first time (was breaking in a clutch for the past week) while leaving a toll plaza on the Turnpike, and the car sounded very smooth. It "purrs" throughout the rev range... no loud screaming, just nice buttery exhaust even at 6600rpms. I'd say the closest thing this sounds to is a C5 'Vette exhaust- it's louder than a 'Vette exhaust, but sounds similar in tone.
As for the setup getting louder with Heads? I can't answer that accurately without pulling a response out my ***. I'm sure this setup on a Heads/Cam car would be very tame with some Carsound cats.

Did you have that set-up custom made? If so, how much did you spend on parts and labor? Sounds really nice! Have anymore pics of the new set-up?

Everything from the header collector back was custom fabricated last December for $460 installed.

I meant compared to 'bullets' tucked in the DS tunnel.

System looks and I'm sure sounds awesome!

SouthFL.02.SS do you have cats too?

I didn't think to ask earlier since that quietens it down a lot.

Thanks for the list. It's very informative. But, I didn't see any mention of the TSP Rumbler catback with an SLP ORY. Anyone have any notion as to how loud that set-up would be and what HP gains I could expect? Thanks... I'm still 2000 Camaro SS stock in the exhaust department, but looking for an inexpensive exhaust mod.

Cats are there for looks , let's just say they're hi, hi, high flow cats...

As for the TSP Rumbler reference, the list posted only contains muffler info, not cat-back info.
