loud lol but I love how it sounds

Me too. I got an interior video, only with the windows up, but it sounds amazing. The acceleration was so rapid about halfway in it made me cough LOL.

After a couple of days of this setup, I can honestly say it's too loud. Cold start is literally wake up the neighborhood, and while it sounds epic and probably the best tone I've heard on these cars, it's too much. It's the loudest setup I've had on the car, definitively louder than both Corsa Xtreme and Borla ATAK. I will be adding the Borla resonator in place of the Borla X-pipe in a couple of days.

The whole touring catback must definitely be up there with the loudest catbacks as well, as it's 3" and only has bottle resonators to tame rasp. I feel like AWE should definitely market it differently.

It does sound great though!

You’re sitting on the wrong side though lol.

Tried the Borla resonator: much quieter, but too smooth and not exciting enough. It solved the immediate need of quieting the car.

Today: got a GT350 X pipe with its oem bullet resonators installed. Perfect! It isn't too loud, probably just a bit louder than my beloved Corsa Sport catback. Tone is excellent...exciting is back! Not much rasp but enough tonal clarity to feel aggressive.
