For everyone that has the GT500's; is everyone running the single tip?
I'm debating between brand new single tip GT500's, OR a set of used quad tip take offs and a new valence. Costing the same as the single tips, just paying for the valence really.
I was also planning to add the boss H pipe with QTP cutouts for those long drives that way it's not obnoxiously loud ALL THE TIME.
I understand the quad tip is louder and a more aggressive look.
I'll go with whatever the majority tells me.
Daily driver, just looking for an aggressive but "tame" sound that doesn't scream "jackass".

I only wanted the GT500's because I'm afraid anything "better" - ie: Borla S-Types will be too loud for my neighbourhood.

I installed the mufflers and love them.
I ran the car at the drag strip last night to get a base line time, now I will get the tune put on next week and see what difference the tune truly makes in performance! Good del too I bought the power package through American Muscle with the forum discount it was like $560

^ isn't sound, functional? Depending on who you ask? Sound functional for:
a) scaring people
b) scaring Priuses
c) waking up neighbors
d) intimidating other drivers
e) intimidating passersby
f) impressing other drivers
g) impressing passersby

I haven't heard a baffle-less Boss in person though, so it might all be gibberish.

I've been wondering if anybody's just played around with the hole in the baffle plate, widen it a bit and see how that affects it. Stands to reason you could end up tuning the sound just how you like it, rather than all or nothing with the cutout?

I might try different things but I'll be sure to post videos when I do!

They are the single tips from a 2012 GT500. They sound great. Not sure what they would have sounded like with the resonators since I did everything at the same time. And I normally leave the house around 0615 so the neighbors better be up anyway getting ready for work, except for the 78 year old man across the street. He's a school crossing guard though and is probably up before me anyway.

EDIT: I found this but they're rediculously expensive:

This is one of the reasons I went with the GT500's, so that I can pair them with the Boss side exhaust down the road. I'd love to have a Boss, I looked at a couple of used ones, but one had been in a MAJOR wreck, the other had higher, and obviously exuberant mileage on it. So I figured I'd build a Boss Junior. I don't plan to do the intake manifold, but I'm eyeing up the Track Key, exhaust, and I've already bought brake lines and (for show) the coil covers. No Boss stripes or anything, but I'd like it to sound like one, and get 90-95% of the performance when I'm done.
