Careful gents, you don't want to be the next target for not taking a knee to nothing but "you know who's" products...

You know I could have something build in the R&D and probably offer it out at around half price. . . Hummm, I wonder who would be interested.

Flyer007 is on a distinguished road
I gladly put my hand up for test subject.

1. Send me AH pipes and I will install as a DIY home installer videoing the whole process.

2. Eli send me a set of the AH clones and I will do the same plus audio compare both.....

I think this is the only fair way to solve....

Why would some one say they have the best sounding exhaust?? Claim that it is too loud or too quite. This is such a subjective issue and it is a different experience for different people. I remember a friend of mine who had this new girlfriend and he was so excited to bring her out with us, claiming she is the most beautiful girl he has ever been with and was eager to show her off. Well....

Just my point, exhaust tones are subject to the opinions of all...

BTW: Hope your buddy didn't make a life commitment there...

Good sounding offer, unfortunately I'm sure we'll have a bigger crowd here in the Los Angeles area. Save on shipping and get sound clips etc.

But nice try..

YoopsRacing will become famous soon enough
As to if the AH mufflers fit on a 99 C2, They took all of 10min to install, no bracket flipping. I do however think the VBand clamps should be included with the muffler. There was nothing funky that you Mr Mech have to do to install them. Even a non technical jake like me can do it...So stop all the *****en and moaning and if you have issues on any non 99 C2 - call Brian at AH, he will make it right.

So Cherry bomb this

-Absolutely, muffler choice is purely a personal preference. Nowhere did I say they are the best sounding as a general statement (reading back through posts)- I will say I think they sound the best on my cars, given my prefs. I also like Agency on the quieter end.

-but again I ask (for like the 4th time now) how you can express such a negative opinion and comparison on an exhaust you have never heard in person or driven with? Your only experience with them is trying to install a set and not being able to complete the install.
That's really the main and only point of what i'm calling your BS on.. how are you forming your opinion of sound quality, tone, resonance, performance etc? -you can't seem to answer this one thing truthfully because you know I've busted you in a lie.

If you had actually used them 1st-hand and offered a poor opinion based on your experience then so what- That's legit, solid input. Fabricating information and expecting others to believe it is not.

fuqit, im doing the 996 pse style hack tomorrow mornin.. i will update with how much better it sounds than all of the other exhausts i have never heard

seriously, i am having it done. i will be able to offer my own opinion of how it sounds on my 3.6 vs. the stock and ghl (which i had, and have) which hopefully someone, someday will find helpful when they read about it here.
