JBA Axle back??????

This is the cheapest i've seen, what I want to know is what they sound like, and if they are chambered or a straight through design. Is anyone using this axle-back? are you happy with it? what are the measurements of the muffler body? here's a link http://marylandspeed.com/jba-axlebac...12-p-2671.html
$475.00 and free shipping.

I was wondering the same thing. It looks like these might be comparable to the SLP Flowmaster, not the Loudmouth II.

The SLP flowmaster is $629.00.

Pretty sure its a chambered muffler. I just ordered the 3 inch competition catback from www.latemodelrestoration.com for $669.00!!! Dont get me wrong, i like borla, slp, SW, etc but cant justify spending 1300 bucks on a catback. All the JBA stuff I've had experience with in the past was very good quality. I'm happy that finally someone didnt decide to jack the prices out the roof.

Lots of info and opinions on exhaust on this site. Here is what I went with. They used my car for the sound bite. Great system. Will bolt right up. All 304 stainless. Sounds great. Great quality and workmanship. Great price.

Yep, so far Mrt is the best sounding i think, i'm just worried it might be too loud after removing everything except 1 set of cats and adding headers. is mrt doing another version for the v8 like they did for the v6?

First time I've listened to the JBA, and I'm VERY impressed with the sound and
the prices! WOW.

I know! Thats what really sold me on ordering it. Going to order some of their shorties after x-mas too for like $649.00. The headers, plus the catback will still be cheaper than a borla, b&b or corsa catback alone. JBA makes good stuff too.. not like its crappy.

That was just the axel-back. The 3" catback is louder for sure.

Sweet!! Yeah I listened to that vid a couple times before I made up my mind and figured it was just the axle-back. Gunna bolt mine up as soon as it gets delivered and try to get a good video of it. Looking forward to finally crawling under something other than a ford!! Time to get some work done... I HATE STOCK!
