The Fabspeed Race, I think, is louder than both of those..

I'll try and get a cold start vid, some warmed up revving and try and convince my wife to stand on the street and record me pulling away etc..

I had one. Don’t waste your money. The worst setup I’ve ever had on my car. The resonance is unbearable. It was so bad I took it off and put the stock muffler back on. I have a couple videos on youtube of the sound.

There is nothing inside those “mufflers”. The test pipes are NOT mandrel bent and about all they’re good for is using them as a template to fab your own pipes. The people who run that company are a joke also. I sold the whole setup I had for $450.

The first and third are my videos, the yellow Box.

Exhaust

I put a GHL on my 2001 S 8 years ago and I love the sound and the resonance. Not sure if they are still in business...they were in Arizona I think.
