frpp or pypes
well the stingers are out of my price range, and so ive narrowed it down to the violators or the gtas. i want something thats gonna be pretty loud when i hit the gasbut not to loud at idlei tried my buddys streetpros hes not using they sounded great at idle buti just didnt think it was loud enough or aggressive enough. i dunno if it was because they werent broke it they were never used. or just because thats they way they are. any help would be most appreciated. thanks oh by the way my set up is jba headers pypes x and gt intermediate pipes.

RE: frpp or pypes
I had the Pypes mid muffler true dual exhaust with an x pipe installed about three weeks ago. The local shop installed it for $140, he said it took them less then 2 hours from the time they got it up in the air. You may be able to install them yourself, but since I don't have a lift in my back yard I decided to let someone else do it. I love the way they sound, they have a great growl to them and you can feel the extra HP and TQ. The only problem I had was with cutting the bumper, the 4" tips are resting with only bout an 16th of an inch between them and the bumper. I cut the bumper all the way til I ran into steel, but they look great!!!

that was taken the day after install. its been a while now and they sound even better, all the popping has gone away(ecept for the normal cold engine pops that go away after it warms up)and it got a more agressive sound when i step on it, idle is quiet,almost stock GTish
