The unit i had in the jeep goes back nearly two years. It opens up the noise of the jeep to actually let you knownita running. Fairly loud startups through to idle. The driveability of the noise is perfect, i think. But, the noise gets to a raspy pitch up at higher RPMS, or when stabbing the throttle quickly. Not perfect. I would prefer a more bass noise, but hey, its a 6cyl.
Constuction is solid. No complaints. Although its an AZ vehicle, so i do t see much rust inducing grime except for a few trips up north in the winter.
The bad: THE BLACK COATING SUCKS! It wore through to bare metal within months. It is not heat reaistant. So, what i do, buy a can of high temp krylon thinking i can rattle can it back to subdued perfection of course. That lasted about a month before completely flaking off. I dont know if it was the temp, or just the surface wasnt prepped correctly (i just cleaned, wire brushed, and sprayed).
Second bad... the exhaust muffler originally started to rattle about 1 1/2 years after instal as if an internal baffle was loose. I contacted Pypes and they replaced it under warranty! Pretty nice of them.
Overall, its an ”ok” system and a definite cut above stock if you want some grunt noise to go with the go peddle.
I dont have conparisons to make to any other, but i would buy again, as its the best sound i have heard over any other online videos.
