Thanks everyone... I appreciate the positive feedback
haha... very good! it's actually at Merrifield next to the Marriott, but close enough
Unfortunately, yes... the car won't start without the fob, which makes my key chain more appropriate for a handbag than a pocket, lol. That said, I love having the remote start feature to warm up that big block V8 engine, plus I can control my windows with it for the "wow" factor
Nice and Deep - yes. Drone - OH yes!. Do I like it - sometimes... mainly during spirited driving, but when I'm cursing on the highway with friends and family, it can really get annoying pretty quickly. I'm actually in the process of fabricating a back section with the OEM mufflers instead of the Joe-Z. I think this will reduce the noise (which I like), but more importantly the drone significantly, while maintaining an unrestricted exhaust flow.
This is only my opinion though... I act "old" for my age and I daily drive my car, so there are many factors that play into my decision. I'd say it would be best to hear it first hand, and make sure you go much further than just around the block.

Thanks for all your help and patience with me Mike Your MEGA arms made a world of difference when I took the car in for alignment... the camber is DEAD ON!!! (middle of the spec range), not to mention they look super sexy
And thanks for the KWs... these things are night&day better than stock.

I'm not sure what the shop did to make it work... all I know is I had to pay for a module to make it happen. The name of the shop is AV Sound Design (703-478-3449). Give them a call and tell him you're interested in a similar setup as mine (they know me there by first name ).
