Install wasn't bad, although it was super hot, AZ. It took me about two hours start to finish, I took my time to get everything right. I think the cats are gone for good (well until I go to emissions test in a year) so its back to mufflers for me. I think I saw a dead person clawing their way out of the ground when I slammed on the gas.. YIKES!

Video? I'd say if you want to quite it down, throw a set of stingers on there. It will take a little away from it but it will still bark when you want it to. I love the way mine sounds!

Actually I picked up a set of stock mufflers, that really quieted down the exhaust. Ordered a new tune from american muscle and she is running like a champ.. Now I just need to get to the track!

i've always wondered what the o/r x would sound like with stock mufflers. The only thing I don't like about the stock mufflers is the small a$$ tips. I love the 4"ers!

I actually like it. Its quiet when you are driving it easy, but if you drop the hammer it sounds pretty **** good. I agree with regards to the small muffler tips, but I suppose welding on 4 inch tips wouldn't be that hard. I have the stainless muffler tips on my stockers, so it looks somewhat decent.

Here's one of few months ago with stock axleback and o/r x-pipe...as you car hear it's alittle louder than the gto but still too quiet for my tastes.

I was surprised how much the stock axleback quieted down the car, but like I said when you hammer it, it's still pretty **** loud. Much louder than bone stock exhaust. My girlfriend has a DSLR camera, I'll try and figure out how to make a vid with it tomorrow of the exhaust.
