Who's got NOWEEDS?

If anyone reading this has a NOWEEDS, I've got a small list of questions for you so that I can have some more knowledge to help me decide if I want a NOWEEDS or a cat-back system. It would be even better if you lived in Florida as I could maybe meet you somewhere and hear it for myself in person. Videos never do any exhaust system justice.

Got them with mounted with my ARH and I tell you what...they are absolutely obnoxious! Love to press that button while stopped in traffic at a light....Green light says go, down goes the peddle, out comes the 8 notes of rage.....heads spin. Its a freakin riot I tell ya.

They have gotten me in trouble twice....no ticket but be prepared for attention....like we needed it anymore.

Go with the QTP cutouts, much better than noweeds. Much better piece. The price noweeds are selling them for you can get a whole catback. I cant justify it. With the QTP cutouts you can go partial settings and they sound awesome.

You should really check your facts about this product.

Alright... questions, here goes:

Does the system have a decent tone and not just loudness?
If you set it to be about half diverter half stock, does it have a better tone?
Is there a drone with it fully open? If so, is it bad? I know you can close them for highway driving but I do wanna know if it has drone in the cabin when it is fully open.
Not a real important question, but what's the difference in gas mileage with it open versus closed?
If you don't have the tools to install it yourself, do you just take it to a local shop and have them install it?

Pardon my lack of knowledge about aftermarket stuff, never done it before.

I am pretty sure that all you will need is a socket wrench and a sawzall. If you dont have a sawzall, you can buy one for $60-70. you will use the heck out of it for other stuff. I have a cordless Dewalt that is awesome... I just used it this past weekend.

a muffler shop should do it for ~$100

Here is a clip of my setup Kooks 1 7/8" LT w/highflow cats, the noweeds diverter and stock muffler.

Ill also say driving it wide open it will be very loud because the diverter opening is pretty much under your seat. oh and the floor vibrates beneath you!
