Has anyone seen this?

Basically looks like bolt on glasspacks to me. But For $300 shipped, might not be a bad deal... Anyone seen of heard these?

I haven't seen these anywhere yet...would be nice to hear them, but I still think I'll stick with my LoudMouths

Interesting that these say they are not 50 state noise legal, but the LoudMouths, which have no baffling at all, claim to be?

...or you could get "the poor man's loudmouth," just have a muffler shop cut of the stockers. It cost me about $100.00.

Boomtube

Just put a pair on about a month ago (07' gt).

Very very nice sound, especially in the low RPM and speed conditions. Not too annoying at highway speeds although definitely louder and 'dronier" than the stock.

People do suddenly now look, and I hear comments as I drive slowly (or not so slowly) by "cool car," or whatever. It brings out the "8" in the V8 is what it feels like.

What I like: Killer low-end/RPM deep growl in addition to when you back off the pedal (completely different tone but sounds great). So You don't have to race the engine to have it sound very cool. Step on the gas in 2nd at near stopping speeds (ie, when you realyl should be in 1st) and the grumbly roar as you take off is very addictive. Too addictive.

If you DO step on the throttle from a stop somewhat enthusiastically, I guess the closest I can think of to describe is NASCAR at the green flag. The roar goes from that low grumble to an insane sports car on steriods type of jet engine noise as you near 5 and 6,000 rpm. Driving in 3rd on a 2 lane parkway with a concrete wall to your left or right has never been so audibly fun since i had my motorcycle.

I haven't heard alot of ther other axle backs out there for '07. I have heard alot of "loud" cars out there that make me cringe how bad they sounds. Granted that I haven't also stood outside the car while someone drives by me in it so I can't really say what it sounds to the casual observer.

All I know is that going from the stock, and then that first press on the gas as I pulled away from the curb the first time I was like "holy s...", and I hadn't even hit 3,000 rpm yet.

Took me about 3 days to get the nerve up to stand at a stoplight and then just gun it, and when I did... "whhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeah...."

Ah man, the best medicine for a stressful day at work.

So anyway... Would highly recommend. However, will say that the guy who installed for me did indicate he had to make a small modification but nothing major. Had to bend one of the brackets just a touch on the car itself. I didn't really inquire further as I have no desired to ever take them off.

Do you have any sound clips? I've been looking at this setup for sometime. My other two choices now are the Pypes Violators and Macs.

mrk1984 · Aug 27, 2007

I have had these for 7 months, i had flowmasters before that. these sound way better, louder and deeper but it does have more drone. I think these are made by mac, they came in a mac bag and others have said the same thing.
they use to have a sound clip on the site but i don't see it anymore. but if i can find my camera i will try to post a clip, but just know, with these as with all exhaust clips, they never sound as good as they do in person.

oh, and next to a wall is great, but under a bridge or in a tunnel is unbeatable, but i also have the same problem of not really knowing what they sound like as a bystander but i get alot of looks.

How bad is the drone at 1600-2000 RPM?
Have you compared the drive-by sound (in person) between stock and the BoomTube axle-backs?

07BLKSTANG-GT · Sep 21, 2007

sound clips. where are the sound clips?

davesiar · Oct 23, 2007

Yes, soundclips! I have been thinking about these for my car, this would be my seventh setup if I go with these. I have an o/r h pipe and am wondering how these would sound. Too loud????? Or, just right???? So far, I have had Corsa's, Stingers, Flowmasters, Mac's, Magnaflows and the stockers on with the O/R H. So far, the best I have had was the Flows. The stingers and the corsa's sounded like a cross between a riding lawnmower, a harley and one of them there hillbilly diesel trucks. That is what I don't want. I wondering if these sound similar to the Stingers and Corsa's.
