I like it, sounds good. Reminds me of an older muscle car at idle.

Bringing this back since I've had some questions about it. I bought this system in march of '09. So far the durability has been great and hasn't shown any signs of aging for a relatively "cheap" catback. It is a lil raspy if your too low in the rpms and in the wrong gear bogging, but dissipates quickly. Overall, I'm still pleased with the sound. Gonna try to get some driving, street launching, and WOT vids of it soon and post them up for my personal collection mainly, but to also help answer some of the questions I've gotten that need some sound instead of words.

Also, the cam is a VRX4 which is a 228/230 .588/.592 on a 112. It sounds really toned down at idle with this catback compared to the true duals that preceded it. Sorry I don't have any before and after vids.

Now if anything, you should be praising it!! You know it sounds good at WOT especially since the tailpipes were right at your door last time we "met" up lol

Thanks again for the compliments guys. Hope to have those vids by the end of the weekend.
