My thoughts on TopSpeed Pro Exhaust w/ silencers removed: (In comparison to the Fast Intentions Catback w/ stock headers & cats i had before.)

I get much less interior drone (virtually none). No annoying deceleration hiss sound that comes with the FI X-pipe. (which gets exponentially worse with test pipes, longtube headers, or HFCs) I like the sound better over all, it is quiet under normal driving, but gets loud when you punch it, especially at higher RPMs.

im my garage with me standing about 10ft away from the tailpipes and having a friend rev it, its about as loud as the FI exhaust, maybe slightly louder.

I'll be attempting to get my COBB cats to fit with these, and if they don't ill do some e-bay test pipes. Gonna get car inspection done first.

as posted earlier. I am running top speed and the ebay y pipe (sure win). Just check my signature. All of you on the fence or not sure here is some feedback. The ebay y pipe will fit to the top speed fine no problems. I used stock gaskets. Second, it sounds GREAT. In my opinion, I wouldn't trade my exhaust for another. The Y-Pipe makes the top speed 2x as loud and my system straight rips now. I cant tell you how mean it sound driving in traffic when i switch over to manual mode and run up 1st 2nd and 3rd gear.

So for all of you looking at this thread. I have this stuff, I love it, it fits great, sounds great, doesnt kill the pocket book and has durability as I have been running for months and months

I have the same setup but have yet to install it! It is too cold for me to take the car out so I still have to wait. The only addition I am looking to make is some Berk HFCs. This is the sound I like.
