I, too, am intrigued by the SW cat back exhaust but haven't heard one in person. Count me in on following this thread!

Question about the axle back you heard lethal hammer. My exhaust is to quiet in track mode. My question is the stainless works axle back in track mode ( once idled down in gear at idle)louder than cold start in track mode. I want something significantly louder even at idle.

Here's mine. But I also have 2" headers with cat delete.

Without physically hearing it in person it's so hard to tell. It sounds much louder on video. Would you say that it's significantly louder??? Sounds awesome as hell. And thank you.

Here's the stock sound on video. And yes it's a lot louder.

Doesn't sound any different on my computer speakers. The dual-mode performance exhaust is pretty loud stock. Not sure why anyone would want it louder, but I'm getting old LOL

I'm curious how much weight can be shaved by swapping the exhaust system though.

P.S. - I need to teach you guys how to shoot an exhaust video

The comparison issue I had was I know how my car sounds. Then playing an aftermarket exhaust on a computer would be relevant but I could not determine what volume to have the speaker at. Now with the two videos I can play both at same volume. Thank you for the help.

Correct me if I'm wrong but does this catback eliminate the secondary cats?

That's what it looked like through pictures. This catback system looks like a great deal versus all other brands that offer only axle backs, which are in the mid to upper $1000's.
