Love the Hawk Kyle!

Kooks is the best TD exhaust for 4th gens, no question!

I built a 3 inch true dual over the axle exhaust for my car, it's lowered with stranos. I haven't had any issues with rubbing or scrapping. I used more ridged hangers on it up front by the x pipe.

That would be an awesome show to be at, I may have to plan on trying to make it!

Setup is raspy around 2k. Sounds best cruising around 2500 but it is VERY loud and attracts attention good/bad.

I only do about a 1000 miles a year at best, so it doesn't bother me. They hate me at the dunkin donuts drive through in the AM though LOL.
I agree with you on it being loud, but its a hell of a lot better sounding than what I had on before. Also good to read that you have a lowered car, I can't wait to have mine lower.

Thanks. Again, good to read about having no issues with TD's on a lowered car.

I must of had a brain fart and wrote Rasp instead of DRONE. No rasp with this setup. Drone is pretty bad however from 1500-2200. Not very easy to have a conversation in the car with your girl, etc.

I find myself cruising/on the highway staying in gear longer to avoid that particular RPM range.

No regrets, simply the best sounding setup I've ever heard on these cars. And I don't think there is a setup I haven't heard!

Make no mistake this setup hangs at least an inch lower than my previous setup (Kooks ORY/Hooker CB). My car has been at this ride height for 10 years so I'm used to it, but one road hazard and it would be mangled.

I want to go to one sometime, sounds like the 20th might be the one to go to. Let me know if you start planing to go, we could try to get a cruise from MN to Norwalk set up.
