OK. Guess I didn't remember correctly. LOL

Sounds great!! Don't like the price tag.

Would love to see more videos.

The advantage for me was they (Zoomers) were relatively local and they were willing to give me a discount and to do the install.

Do they offer a cheaper axle-back?? And if you could post a take-off video over 5k RPM that would be sweet! I'll give you a $1 lol.

Alright, here is my lame attempt at making a video of the Camaro in motion. On the last portion of the video, I attached the camera (using a suction mount) to the rear bumper. The thought being that this would keep the mic out of the wind. What I think this does do though is to put the mic too close to the sound source so I suspect the mic was a little "over powered".

It's funny, on most of the videos that I have seen and heard on this site, someone will usually say, "it really sounds better in person". I always thought, "yah sure". Well, I was wrong. It really does sound better in person. I suspect it has to do with the fact that most of us are using consumer video cameras with pretty simple microphones. Anyway this is a close approximation but it does sound better in person.

The video says its private?

cshaw2049 · 11-14-2009, 03:14 AM

Oops, sorry about that. It has been fixed.

Good video. Wow this exhaust sounds amazing. Is it as loud inside the car?

ckaram · 11-14-2009, 07:41 AM

Nice job with the video. I'm liking the sound of this too. Between this and Solo, my opinion.

cshaw2049 · 11-14-2009, 03:47 PM

Here is another video from inside the car. I wasn't going to upload this video because there is a lot of ambient noise, wind (windows down) and camera rattle, but it is ok for what it is. It is a little longer, there are two passes with windows down and then two passes with windows up.

wow, this sounds amazing. Too bad theyre really pricey.
I really love this sound

The car sounds great. I know, I know you want a video. I'm still working on putting that together. If you are located in SoCal, I may not be too far away. I am in Escondido.

Where in Escondido do you live. I would like to hear your exhaust in person. I live over by Lake hodges.

Im checking the Zoomers site, there is no mention of a V6 exhaust kit. Have they released one ?
