Larry,
You seem to be in this endless exhaust sound spiral with the rest of us.
Are you liking it with the GTA's??Scott
Prior to installing the headers & getting rid of the cats, I loved it,nice rumble.Little Nascar-ish,but not bad at all. I loved the 'burble' you get when slowing.
After driving for a week after the headers,I decided to re-install the GTA's. I almost felt like I was driving a Harley, too harsh & to loud for me.
I guess I don't need a hearing aid yet
The GTA's + OBX do sound nice,I'm really suprised how quiet it is now. Opened up is great. Idle & below 2000,no louder than yours is now.
I'll probably try the straight-thru H next. Close now

I'm thinking we need to make one of those H-pipes into a Prochamber box for you. It won't get any louder but the tone will be lowered.

I do imagine its louder then just the stock system. You also require a tune correct? To fix a few codes and delay the second sensor correct? Do you feel any extra power gains? Or just mere sound.
Heres another rate the sound. Lets put the stock exhaust system with GTA's a 5 in loudness. Hows the OBX L/Ts off road H sound with GTA's?

I will definitely second that...punching it anytime in the powerband feels great now- not to mention in 2nd and 3rd at 3500+ the car is a whole new animal!
Right after I took my friend for a ride he said, "i still feel like im stuck in your seat"

I used the H with resonators that come with the headers, I should have used the straight-thru H. That will most likely be my next project. It is actually quite tame until you open it up.
The L/T's added a noticable increase in seat-of pants power, won't get it on the dyno until this coming spring.
I had my tune reworked by Brenspeed, needed for L/T's.
The rear O2 sensors are eliminated.
Heres a little video I put together before I broke my **** camera!!
Didn't have much to work with so here's what came out...(Full BBK with Pypes MM)

So I can imagine straight through H pipes will deff add some additude in the idle/cruise section. I'm looking for a mean sound. But want to stick with the GTA's for the no drone. Soon as tax returns come in, I'll deff jump on a set of OBX LT's and straight through H pipe.
