I have a video of my car driving away with the track edition. It is loud but has a good rumble to it. At idle it's not bad at all. I tried to post the video but I have been unsuccessful so far.

No fitment issues with my mbrp race. Price reasonable too
Does a great job with eliminating drone. Even being catless my car has almost none.

Did you install it in your driveway or with a lift? I understand you have to cut the mufflers off the stock exhaust

And after cam

What was the cost of your cam install? How much power did you pick up?

AWE Track with Black Tips. It is loud on cold start, but now it sounds like it should.
In V4 mode on highway at 70 & 80 sounds like a stock car. Even in V8 its not that bad. Wife does not mind it, She is happy with its sound.

Another tick for AWE touring setup. Got nothing but compliments on it and when you are in the throttle it sounds incredible. Almost perfect.

If you include the labor and converter it had to have it was $5500 for parts and labor. It picked up right around 60 rwhp.

I've pretty much made up my mind to go with AWE for these reasons:
  • 304, no rusting although it may turn a little goldish...better than surface rust.
  • If I get the race and the drone is too much, I can change it out, as AWE has that option...I'm sure I'll have to pay though.
  • I like the looks, but can't say too much about the sound since I haven't heard it in person...vids are too subjected as mentioned earlier.
Now I just need to get my funds together!

That's not too bad. I'm surprised yours is an auto I thought AWE didn't feel autos?

Sounds amazing though as I said earlier

That is just because of the AFM valves. I had them tuned out so it didn't matter anyway. If you don't tune them out you will get a check engine light.

I’ve had the MBRP axle back (non-race) on my car since Camaro fest 2018. I’ve put about 3500 miles on it and love it. Fit and finish we’re perfect. I did the install in my driveway in about 90 mins my myself on jack stands.

The sound is great with an otherwise stock exhaust. All of the cats and factory manifolds are still in place. There’s no drone anywhere and you forget that it’s there during normal driving. When you step on the fun pedal things change drastically and it sounds angry.

For the price. I’m happy with MBRP And would do it again.

Im on the fence of getting the AWE track w/ performance link pipe (secondary delete) or Borla 60606 w/ MBRP axleback
