Thanks guys.

It sounds pretty good. I never expected a long tube header to be this quiet, but it gets pretty audible at WOT and sounds pretty good.

Yeah that's the great thing about a quality straight thru muffler. Quiet until you put your foot into it. And absolutely no rice buzz EVER. I didn't like mine at first, but once it broke in it sounded better and better. I started loving mine even more after I added the Iceman intake. The combo is absolutely perfect IMO.

To be honest, I think my intake takes over my exhaust lol. Metal intake manifolds with a filter on the throttle body makes for a pretty loud intake at WOT.

And yes, it doesn't buzz or have any drone or anything, it's pretty nice.

Yeah mine too. Well at least from the drivers seat. At low revs and higher throttle it sounds straight up nasty, almost like a Subie.

Yeah please do, I wanna hear that bad boy combined with that intake. I don't have any clips of my current setup unfortunately.

Personally I think you should leave them alone.

New exhaust looks really good, was never a fan of the previous one. I'm sure I'll run into you soon enough and hear it. :lol:

Haha no kidding, you always seem to spot me somehow. I recognized you in the Charger last time, but I doubt I would with the Jeep.

Sounds just like my brothers Integra GSR, a tiny bit deeper. Nice setup and great video.

I think it sounds a bit high pitched, and it reminded me of honda civics when I watched it.

But that's just me. It does look good though.

Do you have a video of the other exhaust you had right before this one?

It's kinda hard to make a cat-less long tube header not sound high pitched lol. This is with a 28" resonator in there too.

I don't have a video of my old one. I can tell you though, that it was ridiculously loud.

I think it sounds good, but I like the more agressive tone that my car has better. No offense, but it does sound like a Honda or something...a good-sounding Honda. LoL!

Damn it sounds considerably different than mine. The cat affects the tone a LOT, and this is a perfect example. I'd get a high flow in there asap and get that deep tone back. Maybe save a few squirrels too. :)

It's a Hot Bodies Cyclone Drift. It originally came with plastic tires and a 27 turn motor. I recently picked up a Traxxas Velineon brushless motor setup and some rubber tires for when I wanna go fast. It's running on a 7.2V battery right now, I hope to have it on a 11.1V Li-Po soon. It's still pretty damn quick though.
