Loving the sound

I am absolutely amazed from the sound of my new MRT V2 exhaust. I had it delivered yesterday from Apex Chase. He made the ordering process seamless, and shipping was only 3 business days.. Had a local shop install it yesterday and I couldn't be happier. Thanks again Chase.

Did you install the Magnaflow x pipe as well with the system? Just curious because I purchased the same exhaust for my wife's car and got the xpipe as well. My thought was to install the MRTv2 exhaust first and see how it sounds/drone. If I don't care for the drone I would then install the Xpipe.

The resonated XPipe won't fit on the convertible and neither will the J pipes because of the underbody bracing. After a couple thousand miles though the sound mellowed out and the drone is not nearly as noticeable.

Congrats. MRT 2 is awesome. I hope you find a highway overpass to drive under soon and floor it!

No X pipe. Just the MRT V2. It has a little bit of drone, but it doesn't bother me.

Thanks guys. I just placed an order for a CAI. Do you guys think it will make the car sound even better?

Yes. The CAI does add a nice sound when accelerating!

I did the same thing yesterday. Love the sound. Apex is a great company to work with. I am just waiting on my CAI (it was out of stock). I hope that comes in soon.

Thank you for your order. We had a bunch of CAI intakes come in today so there is a real good chance it is on the way.

Are you going to have a Tax Refund sale on CAIs? I am thinking about using mine to get one.
