Brian and Chris, thanks for the input on the systems..... We are doing our best to put good stuff on the street at fair prices, we think our kits are a good value to the consumer.... your comments help us prove that.

Appreciate the video clip, all the other forum members that are shopping for that step up in quality do too.

Again, thanks for the business and the valuable time to follow up here on the board with reviews and comments.

Wally

is that straight pipe w/ just the resonator?

I'd love to hear it w/ a 2nd gen manifold and a real turbo

Yup. Would love to hear more turbo out the rear.

the 12v vid didn't seem to kill much turbine... I'm tempted to try one on my truck w/ the VGT

Keep in mind that the resonator is cab sound control.... and it get's it done from what all our customers say.

Video and sound clips are not always the best way to judge

I installed my resonator today after work and took a 30 min ride after the install. My first impression is that it really quiets the truck down both inside and out, however, I think it sounds BETTER than straight pipe. It is by no means overly loud. Zero drone at any speed 0-75. I wish it was a LITTLE bit louder but from a practicality standpoint it's perfect. Before the exhaust was too loud to hear the turbo. Now it sounds nice and deep with no drone or anything. I'm happy with my purchase!!

of course not, my biggest thing is I can't STAND anything that eats up turbine whistle out the exhaust

so the comparason vids show that there's still plenty of turbine sound! the first hand descriptions speak to the reduction in resonance in the cab
