Remus axle-back with Wagner Catted Downpipe - Sound clip!

Hi all!

I finally got my Wagner catted downpipe (from Mike @ XPH) installed. I had previously got a Remus axle-back installed.

Without the downpipe, the Remus was slightly noisier than OEM, probably similar to the MPE, a bit "lower" in tone.

After the downpipe, it did open up the sound a bit, but keep in mind it is a catted downpipe. It still made a pretty good difference.

So here it is - sorry for video quality/exposure etc - I have a tripod for my real camera, but it has a terrible microphone, so this is just my phone rigged on whatever I had available.

BONUS: The amazing sound of Hawk Street/Race pads

absolutely love the sound!! I am looking to pick up the same catted DP with my MPE.

I'm not sure why so many want those stupid obnoxious burbles (sounds like complete crap in my opinion), your setup sounds perfect!.

Thanks Anubis80 ! I bet the sound on MPE will be quite similar.

Oh and I should point out, I drove the car on the highway and still absolutely no drone.

Cold starts are a bit noisy but that is all.

Exactly what I am looking for. No drone, no obnoxious burbles, and great tone

Just an update to say that almost one year in, no issues with drone or anything like that. There was a bit of surface rust on the tips which I had to buff but other than that everything's working and sounding great.

That's really quiet, I always noticed that even if you added the MP exhaust the car sounded like a vacuum. Mind you my cars straight piped so take what I say with a grain of salt lol
