Default Another exhaust question

Does anyone have a sound clip of the SLP 3" powerflo exhaust system?With longtubes?

Has anyone run this exhaust and what were your impressions on the sound and resonance?Compare to another exhaust you have had on your car if possible.

Thanks,
George

That is because the rear mufflers might as well be there for looks. You can see right through them. What do you have in place of the resonator, h pipe or y pipe? Or?

I have the slp exhaust with long tubes and no cats on my 95. I like the sound. To me its not crazy loud. You can see right through the mufflers and i was nervous about running it without cats. But very glad i did. Here is a video I put on youtube. Video kinda sucks. but it will give you an idea. Just fastforward 40 seconds into the video. I goosed the throttle more than what i had to so you could hear the exhaust. But there was alot of other noise going on besides the car running. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sDif7J3o2U.

I haven't really driven the car. I just got done installing the headers like 3 weeks ago. Because of the weather and all the salt on the roads i only drove the car once, like a minute down the road and back. Matter of fact that video is the first time i pulled it out of the garage. To me, I like the sound, no dissapointments. I don't feel that you have to yell to have a conversation, it has a very good performance sound. It is louder in the car, but a good loud. Not like an old car that someone put glasspacks on. I am very happy with this setup. And i'm running no cats, so if your using cats then you should have no worries.
