Share your exhaust combo

I finally installed my texas speed LT headers today, and lemme just say.. Borla Atak CAI and headers, is brutal. The car lets out a tiny pop on every upshift, the downshifts no longer sound like pops, they sound like gun shots. High RPM sounds amazing, no more windy or high pitched type sounds, just mean, roaring, growl. It almost sounds cammed. A few notches below cammed, but it definitely has a nice lopey idle. Anyone who said the borla atak with headers is ugly sounding, is very wrong.

I'll give it a try later today, I have a Nexus 6P phone and the mic isn't that good with very very loud things... The exhaust fits into that category.

I just have a Solo axle back with J pipes right now, very happy with the value of that setup is. I love the sound, I'd love to have a high flow cat/headers setup

So that's what it sounds like to other people. Now I feel bad for the kids at the side of the road!

Headers completely change everything, I knew they would, just not this much!

I have Stainless Steel Long Tube Headers, Stainless Steel Midpipes, High Flow Catalytic Converters, SC'd, Cam'd, and a set of "basic" performance replacement mufflers since my stock went bad.

Tried to keep it decently tame when I am just driving around, but I also have the dual cutout system when I want that extra volume

yeah.. I bet those stock mufflers are still plenty loud with a setup like that.

Yeah, I tried to pick a durable muffler that wasn't going to enhance the volume if that makes any sense... but it is still louder than stock for sure
