I never want to use my stereo now... it is not worth it... the new Milltek exhaust sounds way better
Ok guys, I just got my dp's and catbacks installed. WOW is all I can say. This is now a beast. It is throaty and explosive and LOUD. It gurggles and rumbles when you accelerate and now shows how much of a beast the car is.
Some may say it could be too loud.
I got the non-res version with valve adjuster so you can turn the S on or off. I really don't hear much of a diference when driving it when the S is on or off.
I will try and get some video files, but they never really show off the sound quality. So if anyone is in the Seattle area and would like to hear the tone of the car, please let me know.

probably lost some low-end torque, maybe gained a few up top. Need a before and after dyno.
doubt you could feel that much of a difference. although it may feel faster because its louder.

Interesting because..
They claim 20hp for the cats alone and UK owners who have had their cars fitted with exhaust and ECU claim modest yet noticeable gains, not to mention the weight savings in the case of Miltek.

I believe stratmosphere site said 15% weight savings for non valved version?
Maybe 10% for valved? I forget, I believe it's on their site.
And agreed we need dynos, but beyond that I was just wondering if you noticed a difference off the bat.
To me it means bubkis if I can't feel it, even if the dyno says 1000whp
Btw, I spoke with someone at APR and they think an additional 50hp will be achievable with full exhaust, ECU and intake.. Sometime in the next two weeks
