sounds buff... did your set up require any welding?

I love my greddy Evo. Nice quiet rumble at idle. Good noise through the rpm's. And to me it sounds like it makes a growling noise at WOT and high rpm's. Anyone with a tunnel in there town (monterey/fishermans wharf tunnel for the Cali bay area people) drive through it with the windows down and just floor it. Sounds wicked.

True that... The Hush on a catless car isn't as quiet as stock. But I wouldn't consider it loud either. It just has a nice boxer rumble to it. To be honest thoug, any catless set up is going to be at least slightly louder than stock, dontcha think?

Either Greddy Evo or Borla Hush gets my vote (I'd personally go for the Greddy). But then again, it's impossible to get a catback that's exactly as quiet as stock.

Nope. Just bolts right up.

Why would you go Greddy before Borla? I'm about to get a Borla Hush with Helix combo.

Stromung; quiet at idle, LOUD at full throttle. It gets louder as you go faster instead of being loud all the time. Never been pulled over by the cops with it and my third cat is a straight pipe which makes it a bit louder.
