That's because it basically was straight pipe haha. Header to test pipe to 2 mufflers that didn't seem like they were muffling much anymore.

Also remember I have removed exhaust diffusers and streetported exhaust and intake.

OMG I want that. Sounds fricken nice man. My exhaust for the FB im working on got ran over so I gotta start over. And after hearing that I may end up using 2 in my dual set up on the little 12a. Wonder what it would sound like.

I recommend the XR-1 to all of our customers. We have installed it on a lot of cars and it does an incredible job of bringing down the sound level, while still keeping a good flow rate.

Although i cannot see your video's (comp's being gay) I will agree with you that a brola xr-1 does make a HUGE difference. i love mine, car isnt raspy at all, and much quieter
