I received the quad tips by mistake so it looks like i will have to wait a bit more. Are you going to keep the existing diffuser or get one that has a more rectangular opening for the pipes?

Looking forward to hearing these...

My friend purchased the dual tip version and received the quad tip version too... kinda stupid how they mess up so many orders. Not professional in my opinion..

i do agree with the shipping errors not being the best business practice but im very happy they sent the quad tip. i was able to get it on the freeway today and did not notice any major drone at cruising speeds. heard a little bit at 70 in 6th but it wasnt that bad.

The pipe that splits the exhaust is my concern... It's just the wrong kind of "y" design...

I think the quad tip version is fine. Just that single tip version has that horrible T design. From the look of it, the flow might feed to the right side of the exhaust I'm gonna go with the quad version.

somebody post videos of the quad tips, outside and in. Try to catch the sound at 70 mph, 2500-3000 rpm, cruising.

very interested in sound clips of the quad tip as it is a totally different design from the dual.. dual looks loud.. quad may not be due to the additional bends....

I was initially attracted to this setup becasue:
* price
* 2.75" (planning to go SC in the future)

However, the only 2.75" system that was tested in the DSport shootout (Greddy Evo 3) was one of the lowest performers.... Not sure if that was because of the y design where it splits or because the step up in size from the stock over piping slows down the flow too much and created additional backpressure....
