    Vibrant exhaust

    Well well well. Who would have figured. I had a great opportunity to have the Vibrant exhaust (axle back system) installed. So yes, I'm officially modded. No hell hasn't froze over!



    Sound? Sound is nice, a nice throatier sound at low RPM. At high RPM, the sound isn't harsh.

    Performance? Maybe it's just a placebo effect but second gear seems to pull a little better at high RPM.

    Quality? Build quality is excellent. The system bolts on easily.

    Personal opinion? In the end I'm going to go back to the stock exhaust believe it or not. For me, I actually prefer the sound (or actually the lack of sound) of the stock exhaust partly because it's quieter inside the cabin for me. Some may say it's perfect or needs to be louder... it just comes down to personal taste. Though for those who's looking at a system that will bolt on easily and want a nice throatier sound, take a look at this one.

    Thumbs up to Dave at Vibrant Performance for the great offer and Independent Tuning for doing the install.
