Make sure you get a 3" ID to 2.5" OD reducer.

Funny....I called on Monday Nov. 23 and ordered the headers & exhaust. Took two tries to get through. Customer service said both were in stock. Now the headers are on back order and I have no estimated ship date. Left a message on Friday Nov. 27 and have yet to hear back from the manufacturer. This stuff must be flying off the shelves.

I have the system on back order, but have a question for those that have it.
How loud do you feel it is compared to other exhaust systems?
I am currently stock with Mac mid length headers, ORY, and Borla catback.
Just worried with some of the videos that I saw that it will be a lot quiter at idle and such.
Appreciate the help.

I keep coming close to cancelling the order. I'd keep the Borla but don't like the rasp at 2k RPM. I know duals will get rid of it, but just worried it's too quite.

when i had my magnaflow it didnt rasp. maybe thats an opt for you. having a good ypipe setup helps alot with that rasp as well.

Magnaflow will be quieter than these duals. I had the magnaflow. I now have these duals. The single magnaflow muffler is actually larger and heavier than both hooker mufflers combined. As for the rasp my magnaflow setup still had it with the TSP ypipe with the good merge. It also had it when I had the flowmaster merge fabed into a y. I was also cammed with long tubes which is way raspier than stock cam or facotry manifolds. Only way I got rid of the rasp completely on my setup was to run cats. Cats plus the magnaflow was stock sounding. The ypipe and magnaflow setup also droned a lot, which was annoying. I finally threw in the towel on ypipe setups and went for this catback.

before that setup i had a some cheap ypipe with hooker catback and it rasped like hell
and even before that i had SLP and lets not even talk about rasp there bc they invented it LOL
now loudness wise im only going off the 1 or 2 videos iv seen so its hard to tell.
iv had 4 diff setups. SLP/hooker/TD dumped/magnaflow

Anyone have any estimates as to how loud the blackheart setup is? Mainly comparing to a Borla adjustable catback no plate with headers. I'm pretty sure the Borla will be louder since it is straight through on the passenger side.
