I have the new set for the autos, haven't installed it yet. I am waiting for income tax refund time to get some shorties and a Roto Fab CAI and do it all at once. I will post reviews and videos when it is all done. Sadly, that won't be for another couple of months yet. :(

We spent months in development of the specific system for the L99 cars...you can barely hear it go into 4 cyl mode. I've personaly spent hrs in the cars and can honestly say that it's hardly noticable and there is no drone. The sound difference will never go away as it's a mechanical sound...but we've masked it as best as physically possible.

The front resonator design as well as the mufflers themselves are built specifically for the L99...it's a different set up than the LS3.

The customers that we used for prototyping on both are extremely happy with the set ups.

When you speak to a dealer to order a system, just make sure that they know that there is a difference between the auto's and sticks.

Here is a video to the Automatic MBRP Cat Back kit. It shows the sound when your Camaro goes in to 4cylinders. I hope this helps.

If you don't mind be trying to answer your questions. If you have the LS3 6spd you should go with this kit form MBRP http://www.************.com/mb304stcatba.html

I am almost postive that the gains made with this exhaust is from just the cat back exhaust and no other mods were done but I could be wrong. If you added a set of long tube headers then wrhp gains would be even more.

Do you stock the 304 ss round tip for manual trans, I see you also have the Halltech CAI.

I also have the ss/rs LS3, Manual 6spd. I had the MBRP 3in cat back T304 with the X pipe installed last week. Very happy! Sounds great during accel, decel and idle. The loudest seems to be around 1800 rpm. Thats about 70mph in 6th gear. 65mph quiet. 75mph quiet. Maybe MBRP tech can tell me if this is common for this system? This is the only mod to the car. Hope this helps
