It was a very livable exhaust for daily driving. Perhaps my neighbors are just cool people paired with the fact that I drive respectfully through the neighborhood but i've never gotten any complaints about its noise level, and everyone else loves it. I get plenty of compliments at meets and car shows. Mostly the gear whine at certain speeds from the 4.56 and the hardtop creaking annoyed me much more than the exhaust ever did. I have since bought a daily/beater so none of that really matters now.

I have the stainless rs single. Expect it to be loud, mine drones with a testpipe though its no invidia. I'll upload some vids for you on youtube but I wont leave them active on there for long. I'll post back once theyre up.
Nice!!! I appreciate it man, that's exactly what I was looking for. Sounds great. Can you tell me a little bit about your experience with the exhaust? How the welds looked, how long you've had it, ect..?
The sound quality of the gopro is very accurate. Sounds exactly like what it does in car minus wind noise. I've had the exhaust for maybe a year now? The welds are beautiful and are probably arguably the best i've seen on a non-mass produced exhaust. I dont have any pictures specifically of the welds though lol. I think the bit you were hearing about the early models having problems was the packing in the resonator coming loose which of course is no longer an issue.

Brand new out of the wrapping.

Grats man, its definitely worth it. I was fortunate enough to find mine a few states away brand new right before I was going to order one from a guy who had decided to sell his car. I still paid the full price of the exhaust plus the gas to get there but it was worth it to me for not having to wait a few months for them to make and ship it.

If you want to get rid of that bumper hole on the driver's side you can look into this too. I bought one for my car but the 3m tape on the passenger side likes to pull out just a little probably because of the heat from the exhaust. It doesn't look to bad without it either and you can see more of the exhaust without it. Its all personal preference I guess.

I have the 70Rs with the Berks 70mm on my 06 S. Really great exhaust. You will love the tune when the car gets to 6 grand. Enjoy it. Post up pics and video after the install. Here is one of my videos from a dragon trip.

Nice! Definitely will. Cool video too, I love the Blue Ridge. Live probably about 20 minutes away from it. :]
