I was convinced I was going with the MBRP street, but i am considering the new AFE cat-back system. AFE show a video with he headers, but has anyone installed with no headers?

When we installed the headers and then the exhaust, and maintained our exhaust with the stock manifolds, we came to the conclusion that the sound almost had no difference. Which is why we decided to make the video with both products on the car.

With our exhaust on the stock manifolds it will sound just a tad quieter, but that's about it as far as sound differences are concerned. Still sounds aggressive, and has a nice tone at idle and upon reving it. :headbang:

Did you every order these? Very curious what you think.
Nope, to be honest i am a little nervous about spending the monies since the system seems to be avoided :shrug:. I am still tossing it around though.

it has an engine!
Afe isnt commonly picked in the domestic world. From what i know its more popular with euro cars. They do make nice products. If you like how it sounds i dont think youll be disappointed

Right now I am close to trying it out simply for the price. I'm really surprised that they went through the trouble of making this exhaust but not really pushing the product. I am waiting to see more reviews on the new Solo exhaust systems before I order anything.

I ask for some more info from Lethal Performance. I was looking at the Lethal H-Pipe with the Magnaflow, but curiosity about the AFE is stopping me. I have used AFE on my trucks and they have been great so we will see.

Are you not happy with the MBRP?

The Race had really bad drone and the Street is too Raspy for me. It's really a shame that they didn't put more time into those exhaust.

Hey guys. I just installed the aFe cat back exhaust on Friday. I've only driven it a short distance so far, but am 100% satisfied with it so far. It's not too loud, but very noticeable that it's not stock. On throttle it has a great tone and best of all doesn't drown the sound of the Whipple

I'll get some sound clips and video up tomorrow if time permits.
