Axle back exhaust?

I'm about to get a Beluga axle back which apparently is the clone of the top speed. I got some input on the facebook page and people say it's good

I've been running mine for about 3 weeks and I love it. I'm not going to say its the most amazing sounding exhaust out there, but for the $$ it's pretty effing amazing.

It gets a little bit raspy at higher rpms when you stomp on it but it's still got a nice tone. (I'll add that I think part of my issue is that I'm getting a wicked vibration/rattle somewhere in the hatch at around 4K rpm with heavy accel... which adds to that raspy aspect. Once I get that tracked down I think I'll be completely content) At idle and lower rpms its pretty deep sounding.

As far as loudness... I'll say that its on the high-end of what i can tolerate on a daily basis... just a step down from a AAM shorty/delete really.

Eventually I will get a FI full cat-back but until then, this is perfect.

Glad you like it! As to the rattle/vibration this could be your license plate. Try some 3M double sided tape or some stick on rubber bumps behind it.

Yep... loving it so far! I've already got a piece of high density foam behind the plate (one of the first things i tried) so I don't think it's that... removing the heat shield under there next... I can't help but think that thing is prime for all kinds of vibrations.

Did you use the original rubber garments off of the stock exhaust?
