I'm trying reeeeal hard not to buy this right now... still need to pay the taxes on the car

I just want to hear the damn car.. This thing is just so quiet.. I have no idea what it's doing. I've never really had to look at the tach before.. I always go by sound.

The S-type is probably what I would go for since they say the Touring is only a little louder than stock when cruising.

OK just got finished having my s-types installed and I'm a bit in awe. I knew they were going to be loud but not quite THIS loud. The nice thing is that it's very tame at idle or just cruising around but when you get into it it's pretty insane. I had boomtubes on my last car and these are quite a bit louder but sound MUCH better. Even when these are loud they sound great. I just have to see if I can get used to them. I'm not exactly a 16 year old... So, all that being said, I'm very happy with my purchase. I paid $659 for them and, while that's alot, it's cheaper than going through 4 different exhausts before finding a good one like I did on my 07. I highly recommend these.

I'm glad you're loving the new exhaust! Hopefully you won't find them too overwhelmingly loud. I just got in my Touring exhaust today but unfortunately I have no news from my dealer yet so the car probably still hasn't shown.

This wait is driving me nuts :-X

If possible post a vid of your new exhaust in action!!

Been considering picking up these myself, got a question though. Does changing to this exhaust on a stock '11 gt require a tune?

Nope it doesn't! Which makes it a nice mod to do that doesn't include any other expenses.

I'm looking forward to hearing the touring system. I'll also make sure to post a video including the sound notes on both the stock vs. touring system

Sounds a lot like mine but mine is louder since I removed the stock cats and put in high flow cats. But I get that kind of sound on my 06 GT. (X-pipe, high flow cats, Borla Stingers)

Well, after having these things on for the weekend I can safely say that I LOVE them. The sound is just incredible. It's like there are several different exhaust notes coming out at once. At first I thought they were too loud but I think it was just when compared to stock.
6 I also love the way it "barks" when you rev-match. I highly recommend this exhaust. It sounds even better in person than in the vids. (as most do).
