Honestly, I don't know if it sounds exactly like that since I am inside the car, but I would guess that it sounds similar. I will try to get some flyby videos. I have one idle video that I will try to post up shortly.
Oh, the exhaust clamps that came with the setup are badass. I have absolutely no exhaust leaks, and they were easy to install.

BTW, if Sweet Thunders hurt power, it's only a very little bit, 'cause I actually ran a tenth *faster* in the same density altitude switching from the Bullets to the ST's, with 60' being within a hundreth of a second.

So turning them only gets rid of the resonance? I will leave them as they are then. This setup made a huge difference in my car's power. I had mac mids and a cutout before. It feels like a new car. Yeah I'm not worried about the ST's hurting my power either.

This is why I am going with duals with sweet thunder mufflers.

Most of the vids Ive seen/heard guys have heads/cam and Im wanting to know what it'd sound like w/ stock head/cam instead of a 227+ setup being my wallet doesnt like me enough for me to go that route yet lol.

A few questions here....
Pardon my limited knowledge on exhausts...
I noticed Texas Speed isn't selling that package any more, so, if I wanted to buy the parts individually to build this setup, what would I need?
And, on the first page, on the second picture why one pipe longer than the other? (
)
Also, would I be able to take this setup easily up and over the axle with some nice tips?
I love the sound of sweet thunder.

one pipe is longer cause thats how the collectors on the headers point. they aren't even and point straight back like you might think.
doing over the axle requires an exhaust man that DEFINATLY knows what he is doing as has done it before . Its usually very $$$$ though.

You mean just a bullet on each header and thats it? cause thats my set up and i LOVE it! sounds so bad ***. alot of my friends have true duals and i don't like the way they sound. mine has a deeper muscle car sound.
