HORSBYT Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 You're gonna love them! My neighbor told me that he can hear me from what seems like "miles" away! Wait until they get a little broke in and you lay into it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait until they get a little broke in and you lay into it... I'm already loving them!! i've been thinking on changing the mufflers for a while, just couldn't decide on witch one,i'm glad i got this one. The guys that did the install told me that it wouldn't be much louder than the stock, I think it is much louder and better sound than the stock mufflers.

Carnut12 Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 I might have to invest in an exhaust. I was hesitant becuase I liked the stock sound, but now I can not even hear it over the Supercharger Whine. Although I do like the Supercharger whine, it would be nice to hear the exhaust when I nail it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under idle and mild acceleration they're pretty much on par for stock. I think they very distinguishable under WOT. The stock have more of a "snap" to them and these are a little throatier/deeper.

They got a little louder with the S/C but not much. The only real thing I notice is sort of this "vortex" sound of the exhaust at highway speeds, but that's due to the gears I have, the RPM's, boost that attribute to that.

MMcGuirk Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Best sounding S197 exhaust IMO! I love the burble at idle, reminds me of my 71 Boss 351. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
