Default Gibson dual exhaust

Hi all, can someone with the Gibson dual post a vid or something to see the sound? please. I might not be ordering a exhaust system now, but it sure would be nice to make up my mind now. I want the loudest i can get. and i heard that the gibson is very loud that one guy had to take it off because off his neighbours. Thanx in advance.

I remember reading a thread somewhere in which someone claimed they actually dyno'd less HP with a dual exhaust setup than stock, so make sure you do your research before committing. Not sure if it was on these forums or somewhere else on the net.

EDIT- Not sure it was even the Gibson though.

Default Not happy with mine...

I didn't mind the sound. a little throaty, certainly an attention getter. My issue was the loss of torque. It was unbearable. It felt like a different/new vehicle when I took it back off. Just my experience.

Did you really loose that much power? Only you or everyone with it lost power? i found a guy with a used one here which is a miracle, so i would appreciate some feedback before i make the choice. I have no prob with currrent power i don't need an increase, but if its going to drop then i wouldn't like that. Anybody has a vid with gibson?

Please the guys who have the gibson dual on, when idle do you hear a loud rumble? and when you rev it do you get a bit of a backfire sound?
