One additional note, the 3" OP vibrates against the lower sway bar when driving, which is another reason I'm swapping back. Maybe 3" is too large to fit without other mods... Not sure.

Video below. The sigh at the end is because I love the sound, but know I have to take part off because it's just too loud. I have 3" Perrin cat-back exhaust btw.

Let us know how it sounds with just the header! I've got the 2.5" Perrin resonated and it's just about perfect volume wise. I really want to go aftermarket UEL headers, but really don't want to get much louder.

Do you have factory mounts? Stock sway bar?

We have a slightly used (just for sound clips) 2.5" overpipe and catted/resonated front pipe here at the shop. I'm sure we could figure out an exchange if you would like.

Sounds nice to me doesn't seem to loud but again you're 3" all the way through. Im sure it would be real quiet with a Q300...

The race tips are a little... odd. But I like the look of everything else. Definitely excited for the sound clips!

Does the "Ultra quiet" front pipe make a significant difference to the volume? I haven't seen it discussed much on the forums.
