Is it deep and clean? I'm debating whether or not to get one of these or a Magnaflow.. I don't mind droning so much as long as it's a deep drone.

yea driver824 drove my car yesterday and i guess he liked my car. I have they obx type-h full cat back and i love it. Its deep enough to set off alrams in my school parking lot ( which is tons of fun i must say) and its great for ridding around town and on the highway. I love it almost more than my injen cold air intake. Everyone loves how it sounds and i think all there exhausts sound good like mine

Thanks for the feedback guys. Im debating If I should get the OBX type H catback or just the muffler and a b-pipe instead. Any opinions?

to be honest my tip is alittle low but i dont really mind it but the thing that hangs really low is the bend by the b-pipe. its so low the i worry about hiting it on speed bumps in my parking deck even though my car isnt lowered. but so far i havent hit it on anything so it may not be as low as i think. but its visible though...

mine was the same way. I had a exhaust shop fix it. It wasn't that bad though. A couple hose clamps and you're good.

Hi Ed!

Can you tell me which catback you have? At the OBX website there are 3 types listed: Type-DTM, Type-H, and Racing style. I heard your exhaust at a local meet last summer and I loved how quiet it was yet it had that aftermarket look.

sup bud? long time no see. the exhaust that I have is no longer made, as far as I know. It's none of the above. I've heard the type-H sounds very similar to mine though.

Compared to a cheap universal canister i muffler i had previously, my OBX catback sounds more deep, has a smoother tone, and is not raspy.

I have the cat-back, ordered from ssautochrome, the bpipe did not fit well at all, I had to pay another $100 to have a local shop redo the welds to make it fit ok... still isnt great but worked out ok in the end, very deep, drones on the highway, but the exhaust without the y pipe is not near as bad

all of the 4th gen models seem to hang low where the b-pipe wraps aroundthe gas tank. It's not bad, but I got it fixed like NAS did. Cost me $90.

I was refering to the grouind clearance of the canister itself. The canster seem low to the ground in your "after" pic. how much clearance do you have?

setup look nice.. The "after" setup is far better than the "before".
