Got the HTS coated Mac O/R H in the other day and today i shot a few vids. The O/R H doesn't sound too good while driving around w/ straight through mufflers (when i fab'd my exhaust magnapacks is just about all that would fit right) as iv recently learned. But Revving and hard throttle pulls sounds good, lol. It's the "put put put" puffing u get w/ o/r h's and straight through mufflers that sounds like ass. I was going to sell this, break even, then buy a stainless Pypes O/R X which should sound awesome cuz i love my catted X but the GF doesnt like the catless smell at all, normaly i'd say time for a new GF - but iv been w/ her for over 2 years:nice: So ima proly gunna sell the mil elims (didnt even need em, the car doesnt throw a CEL w/ no cats!) and H cuz it sounds like ass, the GF doesnt like the smell, and it doesnt fit quite right w/ my cat-back set up:(
Here's a bit of revving and about a 1/3 throttle "launch" (tired of cleaning thr rubber off my bumper, no more burn outs for me):

Cruising, sounds better on video, but it kinda lugs the exhaust and puffs about:

your neighbors gotta luv you. :D Sounds like @$$ when idle, sounded much better when you took off.

It's in an idustrial sector near where i work - on a saturday, no ones around:nice: Yeah under throttle is pretty much when it sounds good, w/ 1/3 throttle just mildly accelerating it's a lound "blat blat blat blat" not very muscly sounding just annoying. Iv heard many good sounding o/r H's tho, just not w/ these resontors by magnaflow
 
sounds gangster dude,where did you get the side exhaust set up?
you have any pictures?

I have pics on my other comp, i bought the piping from a place in like Michigan or Illinois pre manderel bent, then shipped to me where i fab'd it together w/ magnapacks and magnaflow dual oval double walled tips to fit my catted SLP. Appearently the Mac isn't quite the same as the SLP x and the Mac had my passenger tips inset towards the middle of the car by like 2" which looks stupid. It's basically a 2" pipe that connects the mid pipe to the resonator, the a gradual sweeping bend that exits to the side right before the tires - no snaking back and forth.
 
Yea im really not a fan of the "blatty" sound that Magnapacks produce on our cars at all. Its like a non-stop popcorn machine.
ahhh the infamous "blat", sounds awful while cruising

i think it's only w/ H's or only on off-road pipes cuz my catted X sounds great w/ my packs, not like i have a choice tho, packs is about all thats fits right for a straight through non "snake-back" side pipe fabrication.

yep it is, i had O/R H and SLP Loudmouths and it had that horrible blat, switched to an O/R X and smoothed out the sound massively!
