i have this catback on my car, and its great, my only beef is that its really really really freakin quiet, but its kinda cool cuase i can hear the turbo and engine WAY over the exhaust note which is kinda nice.

Played around with it a bit yesterday and today and there's a little more top end. Once it gets into the 3000 to 4000 RPM range it really likes to go. I personally really like the sound, when I want it to be loud I can just downshift and when I want it to be quiet (like when a girl is in the car) I can just upshift.

I switched over from the greddy 1 to the magnaflow. Both sound very similar and are quiet. I added a test-pipe on and amazingly there was no sound difference at all.. I couldnt beleive it. Turbo's really are the best mufflers . My only beef with the greddy is that it melts your rear lip.

It hasn't melted my rear lip, but I have an ES so there's not much to melt. So far the most satisfying part of the exhaust has been my brother-in-laws response. I left the exhaust at his house since he was going to give me a hand installing/taking it down to the shop since he knows the guys (hence the cheap install price) and after seeing the size of the muffler his immediate response was "its a fart exhaust". He tried to pursuade me to buy a different muffler or sell the exhaust and go custom but I assured him it would sound good. Even as I got it installed he kept on saying "you're telling me that huge thing isn't a fart can?". After we started it up though he started to like it. I went blasting by him on the way home so he could hear what it was like at WOT and he commented that it sounded like a rally car. Nothing beats having a truck/domestic guy say your import sounds good.

Nope, it doesn't get high pitched at all and isn't ungodly loud. That was my number one concern about getting an exhaust was whether I'd sound like a damn ricer, but so far I've had nothing but compliments about the sound.

Well I go the U of C so unfortunately right now with finals right around the corner I'm just a tad busy. If you can wait a few weeks though I can come to one of the meets and show you how it looks and sounds.
