I've got a COBB stage 1 and it sounds great , with noticable gains on the butt dyno!

Now i have to disagree wholeheartedly on that. The borlas really open up the mid and upper rev range and were good for .5 off my 1/4 mile ET's. The problem is they crack. Under normal driving. I think Ed from ISR said it best when he pulled the leaking in 2 places unit off my car:

"These things make alot of power but they just can't keep em from cracking welds..."

As far as power gains they are no slouch. The things litteraly make the 2.5 come alive at engine speeds which it used to be lacking. But unless the newer gens have fixed the problems plan on taking them up on that 'million mile warranty'.

The sound rocks, the power rolls.
