Feedback
Alright, so this is long overdue (my apologies), but here is some feedback after having the PTS JoeZ series full exhaust installed on my car for a couple of months now.
First of all, I'd like to address one of the concerns some members may have:
For those who DO actually want to hear their passengers and/or music, I will say this exhaust has no cabin drone AT ALL. Listening to music or passengers is not affected (I actually did have a passenger in my vehicle to test out this theory, and I drove on the freeway with no traffic, so I could actually accelerate). 
Some additional points about this exhaust I'd like to make are:
-Silent at low RPMS (2.5k and below). Perfect for cruising and not attracting unwanted attention from cops. (Cause we all know my wheels alone catch their attention
So I don't need additional attention from the 5-0 hehe)
- At above 2.5k, the exhaust comes alive and has a very nice note to it. Low tone, not annoying and high pitched. (You can hear it in the videos I've posted-- YouTube 1ntegress or look at my Instagram @integress )
- Downshifting sounds awesome
OK this one may be subjective but again, you can hear for yourself in the videos I've posted.
Aside from the sounds, it looks great-- it's not too flashy, and doesn't scream "HEY Look at me, I'm an exhaust!" but it does add a nice touch to the rear end

Release update? Price? F Sport exhaust is getting a lot of attention and leaving this one behind. Tanabe is just around the corner I imagine as well. Keep us posted on this one!!

Ahh, I remember eagerly waiting for the GS cat-back to be released. Ready to hear more people join the dark side. 
I fall in love a little more every time I start up the engine.

It sounds better than the F sport exhaust IMHO. I hope the axle back one would sound just as good. Can someone make a video to show how it sounds from inside the car? I really want to know if there is any cabin drone when cruising at 70 mph.
