No love for GHL?

I'm a bit surprised that there isn't more mention of GHL for catback and axleback products. I had their axleback on my vette and was very pleased with the sound, quality, and fitment. Their customer service is also top notch. I just ordered their catback for 50% off the usual price. Considering the quality, you can't beat the price.

I found a couple clips on YT, but the audio quality doesn't do the exhaust justice. Once I get mine installed on the 14th, I'll post install pics and a clip or two. I'll have to use my phone for the clips.. unless I pick up a vid camera by then.

That's where I found them. I was looking into buying them before GHL put them on sale. I could have bought a cheaper catback but I was willing to pay more for quality. Once I saw the price dip by 50%, I couldn't place my order fast enough.

When I went to check out on Ebay, I was having Pay Pal issues. I decided to call GHL and figure out how I can buy the catback without using Pay Pal. I spoke to Jeff and he told me to send him a check and he would ship them ASAP. 15 minutes later I had an email from him with a UPS tracking number. That my friends is customer service.

From my experience with GHL, the quality of their products is what you would want in any exhaust component and they stand behind their products.

I never had any drone issues with their axleback on my vette. GHL says no drone on their website and from my past experience with them, I have no reason to doubt their claim. I'll let you all know in a couple of weeks how the catback sounds.

$599 bucks for 304 mandrel bent polished steel is a smoking deal. You could get this and a CAI for the same price you would pay for anyone else's exhaust. Think I'm going to make the jump on this. Sounds good from the clips.

Do you think it is obnoxiously loud? It doesn't sounds like it from the youtube clip but I have been fooled by that before.

I don't know. It's really hard to say until more people buy this system and give their accounts. If it's too loud, you could buy an axle back from another company and be no worse for wear. You would still have a catback system and no out of pocket. That's what's going through my head right now. I've been agonizing over an exhaust system for over 7 months now. LOL

The axleback I had on my vette wasn't too loud at all. Very nice rumble at idle and when you got on it you knew it wasn't stock. IMO, this deal is a no brainer considering the materials that are being used, price, and I can tell you first hand, their customer service is first rate. There are plenty of other quality/comparable catbacks on the market, but not at this price.

Sounds good. And that's a great deal for a 304 stainless set up!

Same cans as the Bullet catback? They look smaller than the bullet's but I might be wrong. So how does the sound of this system on the Camaro compare to the bullet on the Corvette?
