Default Fabulous Exhaust???

Does anyone know what the fabulous exhaust sounds like? I really like the way it looks but have concerns on db and tone.

its overpriced as hell for a typical res-back exhaust.

the lms exhaust is more powerfull, catback, true dual, and less expensive.

not knocking it, but i dont think anyone has bought it. i'd be suprised if they've sold more than 5 units

Money isnt a factor... I was planning on getting the entire kit including the exhaust but wanted to know if it would be too loud.

Default fabulous vs. borla

I am curious about the Fabulous Exhaust too. I am torn between the Fabulous Exhaust and the Borla kit. I guess since it looks like nobody has heard the fabulous exhaust I guess no one can give me a comparison on any aspects besides the price of these units.
My biggest concern is, how the borla exhaust will mount up against the Fabulous rear lip, I know since the fabulous tips are adjustable so they will mount flush with any body kit.
