Granetelli exhaust?
Anyone out there running a catback Granetelli exhaust on their C-5? Might go a more inexpensive route for a catback system with quad tips. How do they sound, and what are the pro's and con's.
Thanks

Nxt Step Performance is exactly the same thing only a little less $$$$. You can find them on the bay. I really like mine. They're very good quality and the installation is straight forward, just need to take your time. They sound awesome, a nice throaty idle and when you stand on it they really bark. Absolutely no drone, either. The tips line up perfectly and the mufflers tuck in pretty much out of site. You might need to order some better clamps. I got mine from JEG'S. Some folks have had good luck with the ones that come with the setup.
Try `em, you'll like `em.

Granatelli exhaust
To start they sound and look great. Super value in a exhaust. Please look up my old posts and our fellow forum members about the issues in dealing with Granatelli Customer service dept.
I am very happy but getting here was not painless. Biggest issues was the clamps or lack of in the box and the lack of response to fix the problem. The box came all ripped up and it was to me to prove everything. All I wanted was clamps which I offered to buy and then send them the photos as requested.
If you have any other questions please feel to PM me.
Thanks

Had mine for about 2 years now, they look pretty much like a copy of the Borla Stingers, BUT - no drone or popping, they're throaty/low rumble at idle, sound great when you get on it! I love mine and would buy them again for sure....

Absolutely love em, gives a nice throaty idle, sounds great when u get on it and no drone with the A4. Clamps sucked though I went to autozone and bought generic 2 dollar clamps and it went great. Would buy em again in a heartbeat and way less then the other

Edit: People claim they are like Borlas Stingers, but no drone... which is how people describe GHLs, right? How close is the sound to GHLs? It looks like it's a combo of a GHL can, Borla flow tubes, and Corsa Pro-tips.
