Anyone who has these can you post up the pros and cons of them...any rasp? any drone? how is cabin noise? can you still carry on a conversating under normal driving? any annoying vibration? also which mufflers sound the best?

also if you have and videos or sound clips please post them up

little if any rasp. drone at certain rpm, cabin noise is alot when dumped less with tailpipes, yes, some, Bulllets are loudest, sweet thunders have a real nice classic cound, and sprials sound good but flow like ***.

good clearence if you are not lowered, if you are- be prepared to scrap on the mamoth speed bumps!
loud! if you have a cam and long tubes, loudest thing out there besides open header!
power out put is strong! car pulls like a freight train!
if they are dumped before the axel on a daily driver, you will hate 'em cruising around because the drone makes it hard to talk on the phone or even have a conversation in the car. i ran mine out back anf it helped a lot.
over all- they are the ****.
warning- any attempt to go WOT with the police in the vicinity, and they will be looking for you! already have had a warning plus ticket for loud/illegal exhaust!

what setup did you go with(mufflers, cats, x or h pipe, over axle, etc.)? Im thinkin of going TD's on a DD and was told that cats and H-pipe will help drone. I would say over the axle but dumps are just easier and cheaper to do. TIA

I have the TSP with Cam & 3inch dumped in to 1 Chambers & through 1st & 2nd gear it is Loud. But once you go in to OD at 2100 Rpms on up to 2500, the Cabin noise it not bad. I can talk on my phone with the Radio on.

EVERY muffler will behave different. I have TSP X, Spiral Flows, !cats, DUMPED... I can talk just fine, to my passenger, on the phone, etc. It all depends how you drive. I don't drive like a maniac and I have encountered ZERO problems (knock on wood) driving the car every day. Good luck.

cops are real bad around where I live for tint and exhaust, and when I had my TSP true duals, I was real good in town with them (never reving on it), and never was bothered. I'm not sure if u will be so lucky, but good luck.

i dont believe they offer the system with cats but it wouldnt be hard to weld some 3" high flows in their.. sweet thunders reduce to 2.5" in the middle imho sound the best and bullets flow the best..

drone & rasp are all subjective to each person. Whats raspy and nasty to me may be good to someone else. Its all in muffler choice as to drone and rasp. From the ones Ive heard the 2 best sounding are Magnaflow 4x9s and Borla XR1s.

Get the TSP duals u wont regret it.. i know you wont, but let me tell yah something, right now you dont realize the loudnes of the exhaust but when u first start it up you gonna get scared.. anything over 2.5k rpm at mid to WOT it sounds like a freakin monster truck! when u get on it at WOT if you look in ur rear view mirror you will see the freakin dead walking behind you, you wake the dead man.
