It's very similar to the muffler we use now. I actually had it on my car prior to the muffler we use now. It was a bit loud for my taste. I think our exhaust sounds perfect with catless downpipes.

This exhaust sounds fantastic so far! Can't wait to here the catless pipes with it.

Its nice to have another choice of a tuned sounding exhaust. There are already so many options out there that are loud as hell.

Is that drone I hear in the crucial 1500-2500 rpm cruising range? One of my past cars droned between 55 and 70 mph, annoying.

The car is extremely quiet.. The problem we have with the video is we were not talking so you can hear everything. If you reference it to the blinker which is quiet you can see the difference in note.

The car doesn't really drone, it gets a little louder but not much. We were able to acoustically engineer this exhaust system with a boeing acoustical engineer. By doing this we were able to add the X pipe in a calculated location to change the frequency and move the drone/loudness that occurs at 1800-2200 to over 4000rpm where you want it.

There is a lot more calculations involved, but w/o going into too much detail it gives us the quiet note down low and a louder note above.

Thanks!

Michael

Pretty sure its $1400 with intro free shipping (which is a steal compared to some of the downright insulting prices of other systems). Excited to hear catless clips.

- Love the evo's. We have been building parts for them for years. I can't wait for the fuel system to come out for the N54 so we can start moving ahead with bigger and better power

Outstanding. I have my catless downpipes on order and am trying to decide if i should keep the stock exhuast with them for reduced smell/noise, or if the ETS system would be just as quiet and not wake up my neighbors.

It definitely does not wake up the neighbors. The exhaust has a nice mellow tone to it. I'm extermaly happy after hearing some of the other aftermarket exhausts on the market.

Thanks,

Michael
