I agree with everything you said. To me it got rid of any annoyance that I didn’t like about the stock exhaust (rasp, loud pop on low rpm manual mode upshift, tinny start up noise, etc.) all while making it sound like a big block (deeper) and retaining the glorious burbling on deceleration and not neutering the volume. Drove it last weekend for an hour ride of different speeds and roads and I am in love with it.Installed the system tonight. Notable difference from OEM, for sure. Completely eliminated all rasp on a warm start and driving in various modes.
Haven’t gotten on a 70 mph cruise highway ride yet to compare to the drone that happens on the OEM Track mode, but I have a feeling that’s gone, too.
Also haven’t gotten to cold start it yet.
As alluded to on here and the other thread, this system is definitely no louder than OEM. It might be quieter, or else it’s just the lower Hz that makes it less shrill.
Also I’m sure it’s still breaking in a bit. I have sparkles all over my rear valence and bumper from tiny fiberglass bits working themselves out, and the pipes have that new exhaust burn-off smell.
More data and sound/videos to come.
pics here were purposefully non redundant to @Jmeo since he did such a good job photographing most everything. Tried to show what I think is a good depth of tip for install (first try it was pushed in too shallow and couldn’t see the Shelby on the tips), and a few other views.
I think anyone wanting to be louder than stock should look elsewhere.
