The fastest way to get them is on the phone, just FYI if your email is not responded in a timely manner.

Does it become too quiet after the car has been warmed up?

I havent honestly found any good videos of WOT with the axle back with a camera with good audio.
It is not even close to stock levels of quietness. It is just not a nasty raspy fart can annoying drone POS. It has a much deeper tone than stock, with Zero annoying drone while cruising. It makes good noise under throttle, but is pretty quite cruising and idling.

There are some bits in the video I made under WOT, both in and out of the car. If you really want it loud, the dual outlet muffler delete, or single outlet track pipe is what you would want. Those still sounds decent at idle as well, but let it rip under throttle.

The best thing to do if your still unsure is to find someone in your area that has one and hook up with them. Videos still do not really capture the true sound.

Group Buy Update

Ok, according to Ryan at Nameless, they'll start building out as many of these exhausts that they can, starting Monday, Oct. 1st...including group buys.

The difference betwee the one that replaces overpipe, and the one factory fit is ony that the replaces overpipe one, turns two exaust pieces (overpipe/frontpipe) into one piece. They BOTH make the same power and sound, since CAT is still replaced in both for High Flow Cat.

I went offset/offset because I want to have margin to add more parts (headers and/or turbo) for more sound without it becoming obnoxious.

Their Facebook page has some nice pictures with the blacked out exhaust. Also, buried in his thread someone took pictures of theirs. Let me see if I can find the post.

First three links, show the black exhaust.

Fourth link show the replace overpipe part. As you can see it is only one part. It replaces overpipe/frontpipe.

Neziah,

Is it the offset model you are saying is not even close to the stock level of quietness? I wasn't sure because the OP asked about the standard (non-offset) model in the first sentence.

Thanks,

Mike

I'm just gonna rattle can mine with some high heat black when I get it. I only want to see the tips showing on the exhaust, so everything else gets shot black.

No benefit really, just cheaper because they have to use less material. Also, the install of the one piece that replaces two pieces is a bit more difficult because you will have to unbolt one motor mount and raise the engine 2 inches. Not a big deal but just a minor difference.
