Default Joe-Z Vs. ISS Forged sound

I had a Joe-Z exhaust on my first F and I loved the sound of it (my neighbours didn't ).I've been looking at the ISS Forged QES lately.. I was wondering if anyone has heard both in person and could tell me the difference. My guess would be the ISS forged is a little louder but you probably have a little more wheel gain. I like the look of the exhaust tips on the ISS i'm just worried the tips on that thing get so hot your gonna melt the rear bumber. Anyone found a solution to the gap it leaves where the fake tips come out?

If you wanted it a bit quieter then I bet you'll be happy with the DES system /\

i heard it in person and sounded deep and mellow. No drone on the inside

I'm very sure the wheel / power gains are inline with each other under normal operating conditions....
Try not to rely on cold start-up Rwhp Dyno numbers...

At this point it all comes down to Sound, Quality, Price Point & finally looks...

Performace Tube Systems takes pride in each hand crafted system.
-> We have been running the Dual Resonator & Slanted Oval Muffler set up since Oct. 08' release.

They are both Great Systems..!!

I have Joe Z and love the Sound, Gains, and no drone inside, I am 100% happy with the quality of the product.

I have heard both in person and the ISS Forged is a little louder. The tips also do not burn the bumper. They are built specially to not hurt burn or melt anything. I have had mine for over a year and love it
