So, which one would you do? I've been listening to videos all day (productive, I know) and have come down to these two.

I'm currently running the FRPP Sport Cat-back, it's not bad and screams when you get into it but looking for something a bit deeper but still with little/no drone.

I'm sure the Corsa folks will jump in to throw in their 2c, the Corsa sounds good but isn't what I'm looking for so just discuss the two mentioned pls.

arh

the kooks sound pretty good too it seems, but I haven't heard in real life.

the arh catback has zero drone at any speed/rpm (i'd argue that it is more quiet than stock in-cabin when in 6th gear under 60 mph), nice deep idle tone, and incredible deep tone/sound when you get on it. I frequently shift at 6 just to hear more of the exhaust.

stick with the H, for sure.

I can't speak for the Kooks but that is my car in the ARH video and it has zero drone. It doesn't drone at any RPM or under any load - that's including exhaust noise at cruising speeds that some people like to call drone. In fact, the highway cruising volume is practically identical to stock.

I like to say that the ARH cat-back is mature. It does not have embarrassingly loud cold starts and it is quiet when you want it to be. It has a great tone at any RPM range and gets loud when you stomp on it. It was a good compromise for me as an attorney that daily drives his Mustang and can't roll up to meetings or court with a loud car that a 18 year old would drive.

Full ARH system here. Sounds amazing and not a hint of drone.

Love the sound of the ARH H from all the videos I've seen.

I hope there is a black friday deal on them.

I have a full catless kooks system. I love the sound and it is very loud. You can clearly hear it found inside my home. My neighbors hate it lol.

I'm on the ARH train. Bought the catback from a local member on here and have really enjoyed it. I think it makes the car sound like it should have from the factory. Nothing obnoxiously loud, just a powerful muscle car sound with no drone at all. At highway speeds you can have a normal conversation. When you get on it it just sounds powerful.
