Seems pretty obvious jsjjr was referring to the catback - "exhaust system" as layman's terms. You were taking his words so literal, "it's not even funny!"

Also seems pretty obvious jsjjr wanted an exhaust for aesthetics/sound, not once does he claim anything of power.

jsjjr - nice, affordable exhaust; its always nice to see an alternative that is not entirely played out/common!

 

Ha ha, thanks man....you must be an 'old soul' too!

 

I was a bit grumpy at the time of the post too, haha.

Anyways, enough straying from the topic, lol

 

Sounds pretty awesome! But the stock piping sucks.... but still sounds meaty.

 

Just wanted to post this for those that are still stuck on 'bigger is better'.

"None have been shown to do a whole lot in the way of power gains over stock although there is some improvement. There are systems anywhere from 2 ˝” to 3” in total size. If we added up the total area of the exhaust runners leaving the engine, we’d actually find that when combined they have a total area equal to a single 3 1/8” pipe. Why then do we want a 2 ˝” or 3”

On another note, I'm planning on getting some more sound clips, possibly a drive-by this weekend. Truly awesome exhaust note AND, no MELTED SHROUDS.
