If you have a Y-pipe no matter what brand of straight-through muffler you get you're going to get a drone. If you dont have a Y-pipe then you shouldn't have a drone, just a nice note. The Greddy does look nice though, I like it a lot.

Being a realtor, I was hesitant about doing an exhaust. But the 2 wimpy pipes coming out of the back of the car annoyed me so much that I had to do it. After searching this site high and low, I decided it was between the Cattman and HKS. I chose the HKS because I like the tips better and the muffler is super polished. It looks great with my new Sheer Silver SE. There is no drone at all. There is a nice tone though and on hard acceration, it sounds awesome. I think the only drawback was the price. But, the place I used to work at is a Stillen dealer so I got a decent deal on it.

I second this request, since my ride is also Sheer Silver. It would also be great if you could inclue the sound of the exhaust.

I love the way my Greddy sounds.

But in retrospect....I loved my HKS more

I shoulda just had my rear valence cut to fit the HKS.

Sorry, no pics of the car as of yet. I do have some in my digital camera, just not downloaded yet. If you want pics of the wheel spacers, you can go to this post:

I got the urge after seeing those pics. The spacers take away that "sunken rear wheel" look and bring the wheels out to the edge of the fenders. I will try and take pics of the exhaust when I can. I want to put pics up on car domain anyway. By the way, Sheer Silver with the Titanium package rocks. The polished wheels look great against the silver.
