Great ,
How is the sound any drone or extreme loud ? I had corsa extreme and it was just overwhelming how loud it was had to get rid of the corsa but think since the xs is not a straight through design like corsa it might me ok . Just wanted a bit more then the TI system

I have the whole system, headers hiflow cats and their 2.5 system. Sounds amazing nice and throaty(Like it should) I also have a cam so that helps too. I had corsa touring and hated them too quiet. the xspower really make the car sound like a vette should.
I do notice noise inside the cabin, I would not call it drone but you know you have an exhaust system on the car.
I love the way my car sounds and others have liked it too. the fit and finish are second to none. Everything is fully polished, but the headers under the car started to dull a little tho, but no big deal.
Hope you get the set you will not be sorry.

If your willing to wait for an unknown amount of time, the XS are great sounding, I've been waiting on a replacement setup for months. Superman is a good guy and stands behind the product only issue is he can't get answers from the manufacture on the production of the upgraded design that was suppose to be test fitted in May.
I've emailed the company 2 times now and they dont respond.
If your ever around this area shoot a note and you can hear them for yourself

They sound great. I have the 2.5 on my Procharged 2001 Z with Lt headers, catless, blower cam, and stock H pipe ( for now)
