Default Anyone have the Hooker Exhaust?

Got a catalog in the mail today, and it listed a Hooker cat-back exhaust. Anybody heard it?

Thunder Racing sells it. I have been curious about this exhaust my self. Haven't found any reviews of it yet. I know it is an excellent exhaust system on the F-body. I've been looking at exhaust for my C5 and have been considering this one myself.

Too bad they aren't stainless mufflers, only the tips are stainless.

I know it doesnt help too much, but i have a friend with this catback on his z28 (ls1) and it sounds really good. The only thing I can compare it to is an old school small block with the turbo mufflers. Really deep idle, sounds good on acceleration but doesn't get too loud.

Well, on his car there was no interior resonance. But at idle it did vibrate the dash, etc since it had such a deep tone (hooker full length headers, no cats, etc.)
