My recommendation is to replace the mid pipe with the borla unit in my signature. No rasp at all.

A little too loud for me with test pipes and no mufflers. Maybe test pipes or gutted cats With stock mufflers? It will flow much better but not be loud! Stealth!!!

I love it. Gives the Corvettes around here something to fear.

I pulled my rear cans to try it out and it does sound mean. I'm thinking test pipes with a rear muffler that's slightly more aggressive than factory would be the ticket.

That is probably what I will end up doing, I just haven't had the time yet. A nice set of Borlas would sound good I think.

You have to keep the raspy growl, that's what makes it sound like a hot jag. just listen to the new F-typeR, LOTS of raspy growl.

In my opinion this sounds great. Granted you would need to import the parts.

Sounds decent but looks horrible. Looks like 2 fart cans. Big, bulky, ugly on this type of car. I like how the stock mufflers are tucked up and away. They don't hang down or look as ridiculous as this... Just my opinion

Sounds really similar to just removing the mufflers
