Default How loud are SSS Adrenalines?

Who has experience with SSS Adrenalines?
Trying to figure out how much louder they will be than say Flowmaster 40's.
I'm sure I'd have to run my high flow catted H-pipe with them.

Can anyone help me to quantify how loud they are?

Yeah before i threw on the Terminators i ran the Adrenalines with a catted h. It sounded awesome, but i wanted it REALLY loud so i switched. It had a super deep tone that was really unique IMO. As far as loudness goes i'd say they're comparable to packs and stingers with a similar tone.

Here's some clips with just the Adrenaline cat back alone, then with a catted h, and then with long tubes and catted h. The one clip that says Terminators is mislabeled. It's still the Adrenalines.

I been hearing u guys talk about these SSS catbacks for awhile now, are they new? It doesn't look like they make any for 96-98.

LOL
You just want someone around campus with a louder Mustang than yours...

I really like the sound I get from my Flowmaster 3 chambers and O/R H-pipe, but it is the stock 2.25" piping and I want to upgrade to 2.5" with some nice 4" rolled tips.

For the price, the SSS Adrenaline kits does that, but I fear the sound being too loud, and frankly not as nice as the current sound. It would cost me nearly double to get a 2.5" ForceII kit and add the 4" tips I want. Plus I am guessing the straight thru mufflers will be a few more rwhp than a 3 chambered muffler set-up.

You will be the first one I call if I do it!!!

A guy i know (who's also a member on here) had the 3 chambered flows, and switched to the adrenalines. IIRC, he had a o/r x pipe as well. His sounds good with the o/r x. I tried the o/r h with them, and didn't like it personally. It was very tinny/raspy sounding.

The SSS Adrenaline won't be happening.
I have been told they are on back order for up to 60 days.

I am inclined to get the Flowmaster ForceII catback and add 4" rolled tips. I know I will like the sound and looks, plus get the upgrade to 2.5" piping. Only downside is the additional cost to do it (looks like about $200 more).

BTW, thanks to MRTSTANG for posting the vids!!!

I love SSS!!!! I have them on my GT. This is a video when I first bought the car, (I fixed my tips) When I got the car they stuck out too far and sat too low. They sound so sick.
