I am most likely going to but the STS kit. I was curious if any of you have heard the exhaust noise at highway speeds. Is there a lot of drone etc? I like the notorious STS whistle but I do travel some and dont want to have a droning head ache on long trips. Also those of you running them are you happy? Thanks in advance.

I have a friend that just installed the STS on his C5 Z06. I haven't heard it yet in person, but the secretary said it is very loud. Actually rattles the windows when he pulls into his office. I saw both installs ( C5 & C6 ) on HP TV, and these cars sounded great on the tube, but, I get the impression that in person, it's very loud. I'll try to see this car and listen in person, and post an actual impression.

Honestly there is a little bit of drone...but I dont have cats. The whistle is music! I get 23.6 MPG combined (highway, city, racing/dyno)

No complaints..best mod you can do. 8psi=500rwhp on an A4...not to bad of a daily driver.

Do you have any other mods? How long have had it installed and ave you had any reliability issues? Are you use the canned tune from the diablosport?

Thank you
