Kooks Axle back! And Roto Fab
All I can say is Damn! Not sure why I haven't seen anyone with this Kooks Axle back, but man it really sounds great! I don't plan on going crazy with this car, so I played it cool and went with the Axle back only. It sounds absolutely menacing. The tone is much deeper and than stock. I took a leap of faith on this since I hadn't heard one before, but it's the exact tone I was looking for. With that being said, the mufflers aren't for the faint of heart. And if you're drone sensitive, forget it. I also did a Rotofab intake. The quality on those is top notch. Haven't had a bunch of seat time yet, but it seems to wake the car up a little more for sure.

I know videos don't do exhausts any justice really verses hearing them in person, but if you could share one that would be awesome

Here's a cold start clip. I'll have to get some revs tomorrow. The sound will come through pretty well if you have the ability to stream the video to something that'll convey the bass, like a Bluetooth speaker. I love the way the mufflers look under the car also.

You're right. Kooks lists them as mufflers but they're more of a resonator. The cold start video is linked a few posts back. |
