Respectfully disagree on the sound comment but agree with the top end advantage. However, I would dare any of us to know the power difference just by using our butt dynos way too small of a difference to have a discernible effect.

I just listened to some of the sound clips on that borla video. Getting excited to swap it out. Seem like its not only lower and louder but retains alot of that crackle and popping i like.

Im waiting on the 11924CFBA to come off backorder. Ordered from Maryland Speed(great price). Got my mid pipes already but gonna wait for the axleback to come in before I install. The packing for the Borla stuff is fantastic. I really can't wait to get the rest of my order. I will be out of town for a few weeks so the wait will be at least bearable.

Will this help increase the volume at all levels or only during harder acceleration? Hope that question makes sense. For example, i was behind a brand new masarati the other day, and he was barely on the gas pulling out of the gas station and the exhaust sounded wicked.... not loud but you could hear it. Not so much with the factory exhaust on the SS

Sorry (respectfully), you can't compare the Maserati exhaust sound to the Camaro's regardless of exhaust system upgrade. Just different type of engines for both machines. If you want to that high pitch Maserati sound, the next closest and attainable option is the E9X M3 S65 engine.

I don't want that sound I just want to hear the camaro exhaust more at lesser throttle
