PULLING THE TRIGGER ON AXLE-BACK - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

ENV US · 07-05-2013, 12:13 PM

Ok, I am going to order my-axle back this weekend. Trying to decide between MRT V1 or MRT V2. I have a 2011 RS V6 with the only mod is a CAI intake. I would like a nice rumble at stop lights and at city cruising. I don't want a ricey sound. ( I know V8 guys, it isn't going to sound like a V8, I get that, but I don't want a ricer sound either). Please keep your opinions to the MRT V1 and 2 please. Going to Cars and Coffee in Dallas tomorrow, anyone with either of these exhaust going to be there?
Have an awesome Camaro weekend everyone!

I have the V1. I've never heard the V2 in person so I can't say one sounds better than the other. I can say that I love the way my V1 sounds.

ENV US · 07-05-2013, 12:40 PM

Thank you. I called a couple of vendors on here this morning. They both recommend the V2

collinsRS · 07-05-2013, 01:40 PM

I just ordered the V1 myself, I loved the sound on youtube....it makes a huge difference with the headphones.

I chose the MRT 1.0 because thats the sound I prefer. I have the Injen CAI, and the Vmax ported throttle body, so I feel like it's going to sound great.

Also, I'll be at cars and coffee tomorrow too, hope to meet up with ya!

The v2 is definitely a deeper tone. The v1 is louder but raspier. If you are looking for a rumble at the stop lights then the v2 is the obvious choice.

bkdamon · 07-05-2013, 03:14 PM

The MRT v2 sounds awesome WOT and much better than stock at idle.
Just be prepared to spend another $100 on a X-pipe if drone bothers you. If drone don't affect you, you'll love it as is.

Chase I left you a voicemail earlier today. Would prefer to order from you. Do you take PayPal? Another vendor does plus he will sell V2 for $499.00 plus free shipping.

chicagobulls · 07-05-2013, 03:55 PM

Straight pipe 80 bucks lol.

People tell me it sounds unlike anything they have heard almost exotic.

Don't make the mistake I did buying an axle back.

We do take PayPal. Just forward the quote to me and I will get you taken care of.

usranger80 · 07-05-2013, 06:29 PM

I have a 2011 RS, also with CAI Inc intake and I have the MRTv2 too. The sound is great and there is really no drone at all. I can't say the v1 is not good, but I know the v2 is pretty awesome.

Oh, and there is no mistake buying an axle back, go with it.

MRT V2.0.........the way to go IMO

mc_acoustic · 07-06-2013, 12:27 AM

I have the following installed:

BBK long tube headers
CAI intake
MRT1

And other performance mods (That woulnd't affect sound)

I do have trifecta with aggressive ghost cam.

I have fooled 4 people who HAVE cams into thinking I have:

1) Cams
2) A v8

I had a guy with a supercharged HEMI challenger come up to me on the street and say "Your camaro is the best sounding camaro I have heard in the city!"

I also had a guy with a shelby GT come up and say "Your car sounds INSANELY mean for a 6...."

And one guy came up with a 800 horsepower 05 mustang and say "Dude your 8 sound sick with cams!" where I told him "My 6 doesn't have cams" From where his jaw dropped.

I was always told that the mrt1 is louder then the mrt 2 ON IDLE.

Which I knew my car would be sitting idle at most car shows with the cam on... I have yet to hear someone say "Cool v6" its always "Nice v8/best sounding v8 camaro"

I cant compare the two of course, but I can say that I am insanely happy with the sound and I never would expect to get these kind of compliements
