Gabe installed the oval street version on my xB about a year ago. The install and look was top notch. I doubt that I’ve gained any hp on the low end, and only a few (2-4hp) on the top end.

My only complaint is that it changes tone after the engine/exhaust system warms up. The exhaust tones on my other cars stay the same no matter what. As for the (my) Magnaflow, I suspect it’s more susceptible to heat or I just have a (slightly) defective muffler. I personally prefer the tone it produces when the engine/exhaust system is cool.

Hey Stylis, I know you have a video of the auto axleback at idle, do you have a video of someone not idling/ accelerating?

Let me see if I have one, or maybe one of the other guys can post one up.
