If the system has changed I would love to see the difference in sound. I'm sure its still more aggressive. Either way the DTS didn't rattle my brain lol but if you do long road trips it may get annoying IMO.
Damn, well I want to avoid it being annoying. I drive highway a lot and i don't need it to be blaring as i'm chugging along. Just sucks, because I missed out on the GRiP preorders. Don't even know when they are coming back in.

Meng said he had 3" piping on the DTS he got (he was the Hot Lava one there with photographer Danny Nguyen from JDM Zip Ties). Maybe there were a few different prototypes they were testing? He had it for a week or so before going back to get the GRiP installed.

You just need to listen to it for yourself. Whats loud for me might not be loud for you. Either way they both sound bad ass

If you look at the advertising on modbargain where the picture and info are at it said 2.5" but he could have had a different system idk
