Default Mufflex Sound...

I am seriously thinking about getting the Mufflex catback. I listened to the sound clip on their sight and it sounds pretty damn close to what i'm looking for. I am looking for a system without much rasp, but with a deep, exotic sound. Anyone have any opinions on this system?

Its got a nice tone to it. I had the 4" dual outlet version and it was ok. I didn't feel that it flowed as well as a 4" system should and was heavy but overall a good exhaust. It is far from exotic though. Its pretty deep but can be raspy without cats. All depends on a persons opinion. If its an a4 and you have a lot of coverter you normally stay out of the rpm range all the raspyness occurs <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I have the 3.5" mufflex with the dual outlet spintec. I really like the sound. It has a higher pitch than most mufflers, sounds cool. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

When running the closed plate then its pretty smooth but has a very distinct agressive tone over the stock system.

Sounds pretty damn deep to me on their website(nothing like a high-pitched Borla or LM).

It sounds deep with the flowmaster. The spintec has a higher pitch at wot.

I just had mufflex put the 4" on with the spintech and it rumbles. It's like a low bass effect. Sounds mean, would recommend it!
