Yeah, bad drone. There was a little below 2k rpm that didn't bother me. The problem was from 4k-5.5k rpm. It's so loud that all the interior panels rattle and your head is about to explode. I'd routinely have headaches after driving for 15-20 minutes home from work. It was more manageable with the windows open and again, sounds downright outrageously awesome...but I want to hear my grandchildren's voices in 40 years.

Thanks for the feedback.. Sounds tempting, but as you said after 15-20 minutes getting a headache doesn't sound pleasing. Hmmm

With being such a simple bolt on, you just put them on before you go to a car show or meet. When you get done, put the stock muffler back on.

Guys I forgot to bring my camera for install pics :/ oops!!!! But the install took one hour and 15 mintues that included the wheel spacers installation. The cold start was amazing and aggressive drone not much raspy or anything like that. I gotta that's the best thing I spend on this exhaust and I'm impressed how it sounds and fell inlove with it. I will post the pics and video Tom. At work and I will put my camera in the z tonight so I won't forget !!! This is the best product for track/street use for turn heads etc you know the drill. Thanks for the AAM services and I'm glad I'm your first customer to purchase this short tail exhaust !! Got any questions....? Feel free to pm to me!

Thanks

Looks like I took some snap shots few mintues ago in the garage !!!!! up for pics !!!

use the 14mm bolt to lose on the pass. side 2 bolts

lose on the driver side 2 bolts

Then get 12mm bolt to lose the exhaust hanger holders etc 3 bolts
pass. side

driver side 3 bolts

In order to lose the last exhaust hanger get somebody to hold the old muffler rear section and remove the muffler
Then replace the gaskets with brand new ones and
install the exhaust short tails
Tight up the both side exhaust hanger but make sure the exhaust goes in the pipe and tight up the 14 bolt and double check with everything in order to warm up the vehicle to run up to 10 mins and test drive it !!!

to AAM,
Can you guys post some videos showing a decibel meter (don't know the actual name) of a stock exhaust vs the aftermarket pieces you are selling.
I'm really interested but I'm not a fan of loud exhausts.
I do feel the price is high for what it is.

We're top of it! We're getting a dB meter in here soon and I'll shot a video of all of our exhaust products and compare them to stock, Best Motoring style.
