They are LOUD. I had them on my CTSV with 2" ARH headers into 3" exhaust and tried shutting them up with 20" Vibrant resonators and that took maybe 3 decibels out of them. I ended up taking them off, they droned bad and were stupid raspy. They did sound rowdy though...

Thanks Trey!! I like the added look. You can get them at Holohan's Hot Rod Shop.

Thanks for the info. I don't want anything super loud. Just want something with a nice deep tone and rumble. Also looking at Spintech oval tubing exhaust. I'm gonna need something low profiled that'll fit in tight spaces.

Spintechs are going to be loud also Marcus. I went to YouTube and listened to sound clips for literally hours after the first set of mufflers on my Chevelle turned out to be way too loud and droned like crazy. I ended up with Borla Pro XS. No drone and not too loud either.
I got Brandon a TTR90 for Christmas when he was 10. Hid it in the office Christmas Eve. He opened everything and we had cleaned up the mess. Thirty minutes later, the wife went in the office and shut the door. She got the camera rolling and called for him to come in there. He walked through the door and there it was, with a big silver bow stuck on the seat. Total surprise. You should have seen his face. I watch that clip from time to time for the smiles.
He rode it through the garage walk-through door two hours later, prolly going 15-20. Scared me to death, but didn’t even scratch him. Good times...

Thanks for the exhaust info Scott. This is a big decision on what to go with. AS far as the dirt bike talk, I can only imagine the joy and elation on his face. Ahh...the memories!!

Definitely have a camera filming the reveal moment for future reference. They grow up fast….
