Alright so I have had the Zeta catback on my car for about 3 days now. First impressions are its much quieter than I was expecting. If you are looking for an exhaust that isn't going to wake the neighbors this is the one.

The tone at low rpm's up to about 2500k is much deeper than stock. To me it sounds more what I expect a Subaru to sound like (subjective at best I know). The tone deepens once the car is warmed up and I cannot notice any droning sounds at cruising speeds.

Once the RPM's increase you can hear the engine noise over the exhaust. I am going to post some pics below and a quick vid from my phone.

My phones microphone cannot pickup the low tones, I would imagine that happens to a lot of the exhaust clips on here. This exhaust has some nice burble at lower RPM's. If someone has some better setup in the NJ,NY,PA area I will drive over to get a proper recording.

minor gripes: The titanium tips are installed over the existing tips and riveted in place. I would have liked to see a full titanium piece welded onto the pipe.

Would I buy again?
Yes as the installers mentioned the fitment is very good, The welds are high quality. If zeta ever offers an unresonated midpipe id try it, I would also be interested in hearing what it sounds like with a header / high flow cat.

Zeta is available for contact on the forums with quick response and answered all questions I had about the product. This alone for me makes the price of entry worth it.

Thanks for the pictures and the video clips!

As for the riveted on the titanium tip, if you google (image) it, even with different brand, you can see that almost all of the titanium tips are rivet onto the exhaust at some point, as it's rare for a manufacture to directly welding them onto the piping. Many welders face a lot of challenges when they try to weld titanium. It sometimes warps, cracks, or even turns blue.

Good to hear that you love the tone! The exhaust might start off really quiet, but after a little driving/break-in, it will become a slightly louder, but still, no droning at cruising speed!

@ZetaPerformance

Just a quick bump for Zeta. Had my system installed today, actual PnP fit, no issues whatsoever. The sound is great, not overly loud and no drone. I opted for the Titanium tips and they look fantastic against my ultramarine blue color. But, the best part was Stephen and Zeta's customer service!

Thanks again,

Jacob
