Some feedback on the touring axle back. Fit and finish look great out of the box, the tips are phenomenal and well packed in a separate foam box.

Problem: ease of install was ghastly. I'd give it a zero for the typical guy in his driveway installer. The mid pipe is 2.75 and uses a supplied adapter sleeve to mate up to the 3" inlet. Should have just used a 2.75 inlet and slip joint/clamp. There was no way, on my car, the sleeve would all fit together over the mid-pipe and into the inlet, as one.

Or the slip joint on the 3" inlet was undersized/under expanded as it would not for any way slip over the adapter sleeve.

I've got it hatchet jobbed under the car but I'll have to get it welded up.

I just purchased the Track Axle-Back for the SS 6th gen and it was delivered this past week from Phastek. I was about to install it and now I am worried about the level of sound or how loud it will be.

If I install the track axle-back and its too loud, can I just purchase two 180 technology mufflers and install those with the existing other parts from the Track axle back edition? Or would I have to purchase a whole new touring axle back system?

Do you know how loud (dB) the track axle-back is?

Have you heard of anyone getting noise tickets for the loudness of their track systems on regular streets?

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I had planned to install the axle back system myself, maybe I will reconsider...

How to: determine whether to go resonated or non-resonated Touring Edition.

Non-resonated: if you're looking for the perfect, drone-free soundtrack that's aggressive when you want it and civil when you need it, and you're running factory headers, this is your dose of steel. How is it with PLPs and factory headers? PLPs simply increase the volume if your lookin' for more.

Resonated: if you're expecting to apply aftermarket headers, resonated may be your route to take if you are wanting to soften the edge of the enhancements up stream. Worried about performance impacts by running resonated? Don't. They're straight-through and do not hinder flow.

Intending on keeping the stock headers and catalysts for the foreseeable future, but may change to LTHs later in life? No worries, we have conversion kits available for those wanting to switch from non-resonated to resonated, or vice versa in the event you want to pipe up even further.

More interested in equipping the Track Edition over the Touring Edition because raw and rowdy are your speed? That's cool, too. You can apply everything above to the Track Edition. Why? Because the Touring and Track Editions sound identical from the outside of the vehicle. The magic happens within the cabin -- Touring Edition = no drone. Track Edition = driver may be subject to drone.



Questions? I'm here

Well I installed the AWE Axle-back track system and it sounds amazing... The only concern is if the neighborhood has the same opinion. It is very loud. I will post up a video of it here tonight. Any suggestions on bringing it down just a bit? I may have to go to the touring system.

Is your exhaust stock aside from the ABE, Matt?

Well it is just straight pipes so........ Should have gotten the touring edition with mufflers.

Josh that is correct.

I am having trouble uploading a .MOV file from my iPhone. Basically its the cold start I think that is too much. Once the engine warms up and the sound is a little more toned down its amazing. I love the gurgle it gives.

Yesterday I set off a car alarm for a Honda that was 3 parking spaces away with a cold start leaving work.

Is there anything I can do to reduce the initial bang from the cold start?

Maybe... But its really the cold start that is the concern, once I get driving around and the engine is warm its fine and I don't think its too loud. Its the crack of a shotgun in the neighborhood at 7:05AM from the camaro that concerns me...
