Without a list with whoever wants to buy it first your thread is going to be chaos and would impact the bandwidth of our beloved forum... Stop with your who ever offers most. You want it sold set your price and answer your pms.

when i got mine it took over a month for them to get it in stock. I'm OK with it because I knew they were out of stock when I ordered.

for turbo, it's on the loud side.

for NA, it's on the ear bleeding side.

I installed an extra muffler in addition to the new tips:

crazy as it sounds and from everything I've ever heard about the system mine isn't that loud. I don't have the mid pipe yet but my cat is gutted sooo???? And yes I like the sound even had compliments from other ppl with 8's saying that they love it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7BMAKut2-4 don't pay too much attention to the video I'm making a better 1 this is the sound of the turboxs inside my garage.

without the silencers you can only talk at stoplights though.

I agree... mine doesnt seem way too loud w/o silencers (its N.A.), but you definetly need them in if you are taking a longer trip

I took a 3 hour trip the other week and I had a bit of a headache after the drive

the way to best describe the turboxs na with the catless midpipe....

If you're driving next to a cop, and apply any amount of throttle that increases the speed of your vehicle, your car will be too loud and you will be praying the cop is in a good mood.

with the pre-muffler I had installed, I have no such issues. It's still on the loud side, but it has a grumble rumble sound that is perfectly fine to cruise by a cop without worry. If I do any hard acceleration, it will still attract his attention, but not in the mid rpm range.

here's the 2.5" version of it:

You'd just need to find a 3" one. It costs the same.

I need a welding friend now.
