If you go with the v1 and it isn't deep enough then you are pretty much out of luck. If you go v2 and if it isn't loud enough then you can always go with high flow cats and solve that.

yea you'll get down shifting backfire with the 1

I've had the 1 for about 8 months now and absolutely love it. Crackle's some but not so much that it takes away from the awesomeness of them IMO.

My V2 crackles like crazy!!! I love it, it is so sweet sounding. There is little to no drone and at acceleration it is DEEEP and loud. The decel pop on mine is ridiculous but I can't get enough of it

MRT V2 FTW

jshaf · 04-11-2013, 06:40 PM

to me the MRT1 is a step closer to straight pipes from the mrt2 , I have the MRT V1 and like the agressive tone especially at full open throttle. but had to have Helmholtz chambers installed to tone down the Drone at Highway speeds. It sound great now inside and out now!

MRT v2. Just had it installed and love it!

Dizzy82 · 04-13-2013, 12:39 AM

I have the MRT V2 and CAI Inc intake...deeper sound under the hood and a very refined exhaust not out the back. BEST MOD HANDS DOWN for the V6!

V2 is much more popular because it's easy to make and exhaust LOUD...it harder to make it sound GOOD. My V2 gets compliments from muscle car owners, Euro sport drivers, and even the ricer kids my son hangs out with

Any exhaust will crackle if you downshift it or let the rpms drop from the right place.

With the V2, you can carry on a conversation inside the car or listen to music at a regular volume...To overcome drone, you have to do everything louder.

Good luck with your choice!

V2!

Jbakovich · 05-13-2013, 10:47 PM

i went with the v1 got it today installing it on thursday.

Forte · 05-14-2013, 12:11 PM

You can carry on a conversation just fine with the V1. This "drone" people speak of isn't horrible with the V1. I will not comment on the V2 as I don't have it, so it would all be speculation on my part.
