Solo Axle back installed

Just got back from having my Solo axle back exhaust installed. Nothing but
smiles when i fired her up, and she sounded even better when i got on her. Nothing left to say but Thank You Solo Performance Exhaust, very pleased.

Any drone at all? Do they make an axle-back for the GFX cars? Thanks,

i have no drone on mine, even with AFM... as for GFX cars, not particularly, but when I ordered, I had them make mine with no tips, but I had them put expanders on the end, so I could use the MBRP tips with it

Then had the tips powdercoated satin black

I had Flowmaster AT cat back exhaust on my L99 SS. The drone was absolutely horrible. So bad, I had it removed. I got the Solo Mach XL cat back exhaust installed and the difference is incredible. No more annoying drone and they sound great! Couldn't be happier.

I had the axle back put on but I'm having trouble with drone or AFM. Not sure. Not sure if I need to tune Jpipes. It does sound great when I first start her. But about 1200 rpm something sounds awful and feels like it drops gears and the engine is pulling!

Thats not good, maybe Solo performance exhaust can help.

I would contact Steve at Solo. If you bought the exhaust new, the J pipes are suppose to be already pre-tuned. If you bought them used, it is possible someone may have re-tuned them.

I bought new. I've talked to them. They said give it 500 miles to carbon up. I have. I plan on calling them this weekend.
