I cant believe this...where are the V8 members in FL at??

Did you go with a single mid section?

Will the OEM measurements help you out? I have my mid pipe and rear section sitting in my garage from my car if I can get you something to help everyone out let me know. I really want to hear this compared to my custom set up.

What we are looking for is if you would want it to be loud and powerful or produce power but keep the sound under control. Also if you guys want an Axle Back option or just the a full exhaust.

All feedback is appreciated. Also if anyone want to post pics of what they have and what they like and dislike I would really appreciate that.

Thanks

I currently have exhaust on my car. But just to give you an idea of what I think is a great exhaust. I live in CA so Mods on cars can be very tricky to deal w/. On my exhaust at lower RPM's I don't have to worry about catching to much attention from PD. However it picks up a good amount of power in the mid range RPM's and I love it. I love the sound, the look, and the feel. This is just my opinion to try to help you guys.

Keep me updated. I am in Miami and may bring in my 460 depending on the results.

I am keen to learn the following before making a decision:
1) Is it quite inside the car at cruising speeds or is there a drone?
2) What is the impact on horsepower and on torque?
3) Is there a quad tip option?

1. Drone is minimal in the car. The guy with the prototype has not complained and I had the car for a week and it didn't bother me. The car is quite when your cruising and comes alive when you gun it.

2. Bad news I only test fit the exhaust but it was a friends fathers car and he was not OK with putting it on the dyno. He was freaking out the whole time so I tried to make is as fast as possible. Maybe is someone else with a little more time can bring me one we can do a video clip and a couple Dyno pulls. I'm expecting like 15 to 20 WHP if not more!

3. If you can leave me the car for a couple day I will make you a Quad. PM me if your interested. We can do the QES Exhaust we make for the F fit. ( We will have to cut the rear bumper )

The sound was a lot like the GS350. It was a little deeper. The F#$ked up part is I didn't get to drive the car. On the GS350 the car came alive so I can only imagine on the GS460.

As soon as I can get a car in for a couple days I will post the full information. Maybe BATMAN can bring me his....

I'm in Canada today and Arizona tomorrow but back Thursday evening. I have no issues putting my car on a dyno. And I would be happy for you to test drive it and make a video.

I have a couple of questions:
1) I am concerned about the noise, I want the car to sound more aggressive during acceleration like a BMW 550 but quite when crusing highway. What happens if I don't like it?
2) Does the additional hp come at the expense of torque?
3) What is the cost for the dual?

Please PM me the info. We can talk on the phone tomorrow afternoon.
