They look and sound great! Love the black exhausts!

Also great song in the background, not too many country fans anymore... :cheers:

Thanks to all the comments guys.

2 Days of driving and here is my assessment of the system:

1. INMO, Love the Black...LOL
2. Quality of system: EXCEPTIONAL
3. Jay at Hypermotive: EXCEPTIONAL
4. Tips not welded: PITA...I ended up cutting about 1/2" of the extra threads so you now don't see the hideous clamp (which I thermally coated and will chip eventually), but I will touch up from time to time. Honestly to me the worst part of the system, but compared to the system as a whole being AWESOME it's definitely not bad.
5. Sound:
Loudness: Tame but loud enough at WOT...great for a DD, but if you are looking for over the top, this is NOT the system

Tone: IMHO, AWESOME...DEEP and Throaty, no raspiness at all...total old school muscle. Definitely need to like this type of sound

Drone: I consider myself a Drone expert for many reasons, and I am SUPER sensitive to harmonics in general, so to 95% this will NOT apply and I would say the system is 100% drone free. However there is a VERY slight drone in a certain bandwidth:
It ONLY OCCURS UNDER THESE CONDITIONS SO FAR:

* 6th gear
* ~68 Deg. OAT
* 75 mph STARTS but very slightly
* ~2,250 RPM
* 85 mph STOPS
* ~2,500

At 75 Deg. OAT NO DRONE at all...and based on other experiments I would say the start and stop will slightly go down in MPH and RPM as temps get cold then will disappear PROBABLY below 59 Deg. OAT.

System as a whole I would say is a 9.8 out of 10...dam near perfect...and I would recommend to anyone wanting a MUCH louder than stock, but not wake the cops and neighbors up!

One more image since I have saturated this thread with photos already...comparing side by side shows why I personally think doing at least the rear pipes and muffler in black is the way to go...



Ok...should be my last annoying post on this subject.

I'm a frigging 50 year old guy who just learned how to post a video on YouTube yesterday....I have to get my kids to help in this department. LOL! I'll work on it next few weeks now that it is warmer.

RV - the tips look like they stick out a little?? Whats your take on the length sticking out? Also, thanks for the review. My 28 yr old son and his buddy came over. I played the ARH, Corsa, and FRPP for them with their eyes closed. Every time I played the ARH videos they said thats the best "old school" muscle car sound.

Your kid and his friends are spot on...very DEEP and old school.

As for the Tips...A bitch to get right. I am super anal and trying to hide the clamp was my struggle now its in I may push them in a little. My 19 year old likes them out the 16 yr. old likes them in, and believe it or not that is in the middle...You will LOVE the sound if you want deep old school...
