We are putting together the pictures and videos the next few days...we had to photograph all of the kits and then have the background taken out so it shows just the product. We spoke yesterday and all of the information should be done by the end of this weekend, and the thread will be posted early next week

We are very excited! We have two great offerings for the convertible!

Awesome axle back sound. I will reserve my order until I hear the cat back version.

The catback is more refined and even better! I believe this car was stock except for our exhaust.

Appreciate it for us exhaust newbies when you post up videos you could include a brief mention of each set-up and what sound they're designed to achieve. For example axle back is louder than cat; J-pipes, why/why not.

I'm looking for a set-up with a nice start-up and idle rumble, nice deep and loud sound at WOT, but with normal throttle, crusing slowly or on highway, in-car sound that's not intrusive or closer to stock.

From the reviews so far, it sounds like catback (LS3).

GOINGSOLO2 · 07-09-2011, 09:53 AM

The axle back is a bit more "raw" then the cat-back. The cat-back is more refined. Both kits have the J pipes, so interior drone is eliminated on both. The axle back is slightly louder, but will not get you much power. It's more for the enthusiast that is just looking for a deeper, more aggressive sound, without the drone, and being light on the pocket.

The cat-back is more for the enthusiast that wants some power gain, as well as a more refined sound. Both kits are designed for the daily driver in mind..."sound on demand" as we like to put it. The amount of sound you get out of the exhaust is dependent on driver input. This is what is best for a daily driver that doesn't want the neighbors complaining in the morning. Both kits sound fantastic, and are no drone. Start up and idle has a nice deep rumble on both. Cruising is just slightly louder than stock, not even close to intrusive. Both kits never become intrusive. WOT sounds mean and aggressive, still with no drone.

If we thought that any of the kits weren't designed for the daily driver, we would make sure to market it that way. We will never mislead a customer. That's not good business practice and would not help us grow as a company.

@SOLO: Thanks for the input. Looking forward to availability!

This is the kind of business I like giving my money to! Solo is going to be the first mod I am doing to the vert when it gets here.
