1.Ok so it holds true, I have finally found the secret to having the deepest growling v6 possible. I had all five guys at the shop agree that the difference was night and day and that the car actually sounded much better than stock v8 Camaros.
2. Drone was reduced dramatically, not increased like I was expecting. Rasp is still the same before the change.
So without further due, the before and after specs;
Before:
DT Shorties
Magnaflow Resonated Xpipe
MRT 1.0
Resonators Deleted
Rear Cats Deleted
Stock Piping
After:
DT Shorties
Magnaflow Resonated Xpipe
Resonators Deleted
Rear Cats Deleted
3" Piping from Resonated Xpipe to rear end.
Phase Cam
From the results that I've heard, this is by far the best sound I've ever heard from our v6 cars and when your light on the peddle, its not loud and obnoxious. The secret is the resonated xpipe and I'm now even more confident in saying that everyone should have one installed, end of story.
So any of you who were wondering what effect there would be going with 3" pipes out the xpipe, I can tell you that the results are impressive and you will agree with me when you do this.
I'm gonna go do a video clip of the idle. Sorry but I never had a chance to wash the car from the drive home and also there were people using weed eaters a couple houses away. I drove through a huge rainstorm and now the car looks dirty :( . Anyhow, enjoy!
And yes the car finally gurgles and growls and is a bit choppy.
EDIT 10/20/2014: Now had this setup for over a year and a half and loving it. No issues with noise complaints or tickets from excessive noise. When your light footed, you can drive without too much noise... Hit the pedal hard and watch it scream!
