Sorry breakaway, I cant comment on your exhaust, because i cant hear it on the video with these crappy speakers i have! the pics you posted though says a lot for the quality and fitment ...which both look great (better than my megan exhaust) and if the sound is at least as good as mine i think i am going to go shopping.

Finally got mine on (including an injury of half my thumb cut off!!) Before i had this on i had my muffler unbolted and i thought that sounded good....but this exhaust is a thing of beauty. The Sound is Perfect...at idle, at normal rev, and when you stomp on it sounds great.....i only have an intake and man what a compliment!!! There is some nice pull ...maybe its in my head but the car is responding nicely to the exhaust.....Also the stock exhaust system is much heavier then the Draxas system so i am sure that an easy 10 to 20 lbs are lost too!!! Not sure if you noticed that too Break_Away......Over all extremely satisfied...i will try to get some vid's and pics too!!!

I'm glad more people are trying this out. Video sounds nice too. It'll definitely be on my list if I'm ever not poor.

im happy you like your exhaust as well! i didnt really notice weight, but i wasnt comparing it either, so I wouldnt know about weight.

i can say that exhaust is REAL deep in the 2k - 3k range

as for dyno... the numbers they got the first time were messed up (the dyno was messed up), so eventually i should be getting my car dyno'ed

That exhaust sounds great!

I've been planning on getting a kit from CC- I may have to get this one instead. It looks like the piping has less bends too, which I like.

Looks and sounds good.

VERY similar to the sound of my Creative Compacts, full exhaust.

Too bad Draxas werent shipping when I as ready to buy, though I am very happy with my CC, mine may be a bit louder with the Borla muffler.

Im glad I waited because this is exactly what I want. The sound is great and it looks similar to stock (which once again is what i want). I just want to make sure the new exhaust is being shipped w/ the resinator and spipe because I want the whole deal. Also --- should I get the header now or wait?? anybody have a view on this? When it comes time to passing emissions in NJ ....will i have a problem w/ this new setup?

With a high flow CAT, no. Shouldnt be a problem. I'm in NJ (Stevens Inst. of Tech). Even if you do have problems, let me know. I run with the RX7-Rotary people (I'm working on a FD 20B 3-rotor project car, my moneypit for the next 10 years), dirtiest engines on the roads, they spit fire 2ft on downshifts. You think modified RX7's are street legal?

I should get a video of my CC-Full setup, its very similar, just not polished. People should not be scared to buy either of these exhausts, both are sick.

ha nice. I need to know what headers people are choosing because the exhaust sounds great and the last thing i want to do is mess that up.
