Default *VIDEO* TopSpeed Exhaust installed...

Hey guys!!

Below is a video clip of the TopSpeed Exhaust I got. I personally think it sounds GREAT!! NO DRONING inside at all. At idle it nice and quiet like a luxury car should be but at WOT it has a deep growl! I LOVE IT! The guys over at TopSpeed are great to do business with and really down to earth. VERY PROFESSIONAL guys and I don't think you will be disappointed to do business with them.

I like it. Great to see we have more options here. Is this the same company in FL that was looking to try or test on a 3gen GS V8?

Is it a full set up or axle back? If its full did they stay with one mid pipe or go 2 pipes all the way from the front?

this is a different company then that Florida one.

This is the axle back only. I have been thinking about cutting the resonator and replacing it with a straight pipe or magnaflow resonator.

Here are some videos to compare when I did this with my BMW 540i..

Magnaflow exhaust ONLY

only approved vendors are allowed to conduct GB of any sort directly by themselves. members are not allowed to start any GB, they all have to go through our approved vendors. thanks

sounds great. I hope you will handle the droning better than I did. I took my Tanabe Medallion system off after 2 years. I live in the hills so there is a lot of droning with these uphill grades all of the time

Nice! Got any videos where the car isn't in some sort of enclosed area? The sound is being amplified a bit. A clip of the car outside in the open would be a better indicator.

Sounds means though like a V8 should be
