I jsut went from the bypass to the track exhuast about 2 weeks ago and I love it. But be aware that it's loud and I mean LOUD, might attract unwanted attention from the local police or CHP ( I used to live in LA). Depending on how u look at, both the best/worst things about this track exhaust is that u can't simply press the sports button and reroute the exhuast through the side muffler. Bcz there isn't any. If u want a cup car like sound in a street car, this is a must get. I wouldn't regret it even if getting a noise ticket in my country

there are many choices here. i have the cargraphics kit 6 which deletes the side mufflers. the system is full headers, 200 cell sport cats, but leaves the factory rear resonator in place. sounds awesome and i can still have a somewhat stealth sound when needed (almost never).
another option is the fabspeed side muffler delete which connects to your factory header/cats and uses the factory rear resonator. don't remember if it still uses the flappers for some quiter time though.

the sharky system was definetly a consideration but i didn't want to be too loud all the time. that being said, it must sound great and like the others, saves alot of weight from the rear of the car.

if you would like to hear mine, pm me, i live in the far eastern reaches of l.a. county, just on your way to auto club speedway.

was trying to keep things on the cheaper side...

i also considered doing a side muffler delete but keeping the stock center muffler.

Does the track system drone @ highway cruising speeds?

I've tested mufflers and cat combos on other cars, and have found that cats actually add drone from 2-4k rpm which is why I was asking. Yes the straight pipe car (no cat, w/muffler) is louder up top on full throttle, but at freeway speeds, I've found that they are actually quieter, well less drone at least.

There's a spot with the track exhaust, right around 3000 RPMs, that's tolerable at cruising speeds. It has little drone in this RPM range. At most other RPMs, especially under varying throttle loads, it's considerably louder.

Driving around town would be difficult, annoying, and risky. But driving 100 miles on a straight, flat freeway at 75 MPH is not a problem.

That Shark set up sounds insane. I've heard 10GT3s set up and it too sounds sick. I actually encourage my wife to drive mine around the block just so I can stand outside and listen to it - luckily no PDK yet or she'd probably never come back.
