I just checked out a vid of that one and I liked it. How loud is it driving around town?

Not yet haven't had time yet. Maybe this friday.

I do have a bad popping still with the pypes during decel and in between shifts but it will be gone tomorrow when my tuner emails me a new tune to get rid of it.

the inside is the problem... but its all personal preference... this is my second catback and im thinking about getting something different

What do you think you will end up going for?

Around town it has a deep/bassy sound, and at WOT it's pretty loud.

OP: Look into the stingers, you'll love them. All the cobra guys go with the bassani/borla combo and it sounds absoutely badass.

Most of the GT vids with the bassani/borla's I see on youtube are with the bassani headers too which changes the tone a bit. But heres a vid of mine right after I had my X pipe installed. So note that it will sound a bit deeper than that once the X pipe breaks in...I also filmed that inside of this 8 car shared garage next to the gate so the sound is alittle bit muffled up

It's not compensating, when you have a big *** and you want the world and Girls to know it. Natures number one rule is the one that survives is the one that procreates the most.

Horsepower is like a way to say, "Hey, look at me, I have a huge C***."

My idea of a compensator would be a Base model C6 Vette, Aviator sunglasses, Popped Collar Locosta, and hair gel straight up for their boyfriend to play when they are doing carnal acts against nature.

That sounds awesome. This probably the direction I'd like to go as long as the drone isn't bad but I'll have to look around and see if I can find some deals on the Bassani catted X. I liked the SLP x-pipe price wise but if it has clearance problems that would likely be an issue (my car has H&R supersport coil springs, Bilstein shocks and struts, and Maximum Motorsports caster/camber plates which drop it about an inch).
