Turbo XS Exhaust

I've heard the sound clips of this exhaust before, but they don't really justify how it really sounds. Some people say it's really loud and some people say it's just right, I'm not sure which one it is I live in California so the cops are just out to get everything that has wheels

What I want to know is... is the TXS TBE a exhaust that will turn heads only when you step on it only or is it a exhaust that will wake the dead even at cruise?

its not that loud i have a friend with it it sounds pretty good and yah it is loud at wot but remember that it does have a resonator in it so it isnt that loud. oh and the fit is really good except you might want to get a heat shield to protect your bumper

Bro i wish i could tell you, but i haven't installed my TXS catback yet...

For now i only got the catback, but after xmas i will get a 3'' HFC and the downpipe... I know that i will have installation issues w/ the downpipe because is 3'' all the way, but i am sure i could fix these problems, as many evo owners have done with theirs...

Personally because i really like this exhaust if it makes too much noise for my taste i will install a second resonator, to lower the noise... So even if i use two resonators and the HFC the system is by faaar better than the stock one...

thanks for the replies. i know that with a HFC instead of a straight pipe it'll be quieter so I'm going that route.

This is like one of the few FULL 3 in exhausts out there with great sound and fitment, correct? It's just so hard to find a full 3 inch exhaust that doesn't taper down near the cats
