Got into the group buy, well worth it. I would have paid the full price it would have been worth it but glad I made the group buy.

I got in on the group buy. I had an alignment issue but got it taken care of. If it wasn't for the group buy discount I would not have bought them. They do make the V2 exhaust sound more aggressive and I like that. JMO.

The group buy was nice. I like them so far, will give more details when/if I get my updated tune so I can try them out at the track. Don't want to take a chance of hurting anything until my tune is checked.

So what did the HF do? Lower the exhaust note? Better acceleration performance?

Just wondering....

Thx

Also anyone had a check engine light pop up after the cat install? and how many miles do you have on the cats now with no check engine light?

Added a little more sound to the system. Slightly louder at idle, a tad louder at cruising, more aggressive or more of a growl at hard/wide open throttle. The MRT V2.0 exhaust sounded awesome before I put this on and did make it sound better after. Solo claims 15 RWHP gains. To hard for me to tell the difference if it actually added HP or not. It does seem like it has more punch. When I am cruising and come up on a slow car doing 40, I get on it to pass it seems like it has a lot more spunk in it. Seems to spool up a little quicker in the low to mid RPM range but that could be a cross between both the TB and the HFC's. I tried to make a sound clip but my 5 year old camera isn't working properly. Once it warms up I will find another way and get a clip posted on this site.

Dean.

Thanks Dean.

I'd love to hear your set up!

No response from retailers on price specials for another group buy is disappointing

I missed the group buy as well and find the tag on them a bit too excessive, was hoping for another group buy or sale of some sort as well :/

I may be able to get the vendor to put together a group sale, but I need at least 3 to commit and I can talk with the owner of SOLO.
