Default FRPP GTA axlebacks installed

Paid 260 from Ninosport.com, fit fine, look great, actually seem quieter than stock. Worth the money but not if you want louder than stock, just a slight different tone. Paintedthemblack to blend in. Not much of an upgrade but no drone like Macs.

I just put mine on thursday and they are alot nicer then stock. They sound louder then stock to me. They have a nice rumble to them.

Got mine put on Saturday. Did you notice the car pulling as hard from stopped to 3000 rpm?
Do you have auto or manual? Here is a pic with one muffler on eash side. Really like the bigger ports appearence wise. Took 2.5 hours though!

Dont notice any power diff in my auto car, doubt they affect performance at all. The only negative is the inside of the ports get sooty and need wiped off alot unlike the stockers whose slash cut hides the inside of the tip.

Okay, thanks for your response. Just my seat of pants feels slower.

These should flow better than stockers, theyre lighter and smaller but they are pretty quiet so maybe they have more friggin baffles, ill do a speed run with my GTech and see if theres a power diff.

I wish this company would make some axlebacks, these mufflers sound killer on my old stang.

Never heard of them. Good to know. We should send a few emails to spur them on a bit!

hemmeron- thx for the feedback!

+1. I agree with this. When I first put them on I was dissapointed. But after a few weeks, they sound better.

Just had them on a couple of weeks...love 'em! (I had rented the GT-H over last summer and knew thats the sound I wanted)

I did have Borla Stingers on for one day, the drone was completely unbearable, like torture! The sound out side was good, but inside (where it matters) I couldn't take. Took them off the next day, sold 'em and got the GTA's (with the FRPP Power Pack)

The GTA's are, to me a little louder than stock, not by much, but they sound good to me, not obnoxious, and no drone at all! They sound great at WOT!
