Default Some vids of 2012 5.0 with LT's and OR x-pipe for those wondering

Made a couple of vids this morning as I see a lack of them for these new cars. I guess not many people are doing headers. It's higher pitched at WOT than I expected so I might experiment with some different mufflers. Surprisingly idle and easy cruising isn't much louder than when I just had the axlebacks on.

Sounds good to me. Was the install just as fun as it is on a 3v?

Sounds good man. I have yet decide on LT's or just an off-road X pipe. Either way, the cats will be gone on my car soon. What mods do you have besides the exhaust?

I didn't do the install because I'm just too busy working on the new house and I didn't really want to be crawling around underneath the car just on jack stands. The guy who did it said it was about the same difficulty as the 3v variety as he's done both. It took him about 5 hours.

Just a Bama 93 race tune. Just those couple things made this car somewhat uncontrollable.

Been driving it to work which involves a lot of freeway cruising and have found the noise is very low. Just a little bit of a purr.
