Default Video Clips of my new X-pipe setup

My exhaust is XS headers into a 3" mandrel bent x-pipe with magnaflow cats and classic chambered short powerpack mufflers. Unfortunately I don't have a digital video camera so I had to use my Canon powershot to take these and you'll notice the sound quality isn't the best. It sounds closest to the real thing with a big sub. I have a 10" and these clips sound really close to the real thing but on my laptop, the clips sound terrible.
I really like the sound of my car. It's not too loud when your driving but it seems to double in volume at idle, I'm guessing because of the 16* overlap@.050. I had a y-pipe setup with no cats on my last car and I think this just blows it away.
Tell me what you think

Sounds very custom. I like the sound, not raspy, nor too deep.

I've been waiting for your vid. I like it.

I wish someone would post a vid a car with 3" duals without a cam.(With powerpacks/powersticks)

i had that setup for a few days until the cam went in. I forgot to take clips though.

As for why I changed it, the flo-pro twisters sounded like duke on a stick. Kinda like a half-assed muffled version of a flowmaster or somethin.

I'm planning on getting an in car clip tomorrow and hopefully a better outside clip where I can get on it a little more.

Before the heads/cam, it was just deep, not loud at all at idle. I really liked it because it was deep but not very loud until you got on the gas. If you like the sound of my exhaust on the second clip, you will like the powerpacks

yeah i got some medium length powerpacks waiting to go on along with the metal core cats...but my system is an H-pipe with 2.5" piping, crush bends, and over the axle. Hope the sound is close to what you have.

Oh and sounds good brother!!
