So did you get it? That's not much above dealer cost....best deal I think you'll find as long as they don't stick it to ya on shipping.

I've heard the DC sports sound great in one video clip... but i saw one up close this past saturday.... guy had a K&N CAI, DC Sports header and Exhaust... altogether, I didn't like the sound.... probabl ywould have sounded better with a resonator or two...

well just about any setup with a header and no resonator doesn't sound that great.

and i was merging onto the highway earlier today and as i glanced off to my left side to check for traffic and i put on the gas. a dude with an eclipse was on the right middle lane and i noticed his head jerk my way quickly and he seemed to have a shocked look upon his face as i pulled ahead to get in front of him.

im gonna file that next to the dude in the corvette who felt he needed to try and trump me.

I figured that... but these days I'm leaning towards the TRD exhaust or the Injen... decisions decisions....

both are good, i prefer the TRD, its a good bit deeper and the "beat" of it isn't as fast.

but ultimately its what YOU like best.

oh I agree... It's just damn hard to get a good idea of what everything sounds like when you're watching low bit rate video clips buffered from some slow website and you don't even know if the video equipment is picking up all the sound.... oh well.. did the TRD and the Injen make it into that dyno performance roundup??? hehe

EDIT: PS.... I wasn't necessarily refering to the video clip at the beginning of this thread... It's actually one of the better ones I think...

well the TRD only adds 2/3 HP the least amount of gain from all the other exhausts but IMO, it gives the best sound.

maybe I'll just unbolt my intake manifold and exhaust header and run around town like that till my ECU shuts me down... It's so hard for me to decide anything, it will be time to ge another car before I choose one....

i would reccomend some earmuffs and a lot of mirrors so you would be able to see where you are going.

does anybody know of anyone that bought the DC Sports Exhaust. I think it sounds great but its hard to tell what it really sounds like in the video. Has anyone heard it in person?
