hey sorry i dont have your answer but i just wanted to hear first hand what the BlueFlame sounds like, because its got numerous silencers (Pre, Center, and Rear) claiming it is the dB killer.. if anyone would be kind enough to post a soundclip or just put out a comparison with another exhaust, thatd be great thanks

finally!!!

finally got the valance figured out and the system installed. Sounds nice...lower frequency, not "blatty", but still a bit louder than stock (without the supplied inserts, which I probably won't use anytime soon). I haven't spent any real time on the road with it yet so it remains to be seen what it'll be like from inside the car.

I'll pre-empt all requests for a sound bite. I know it's a PITA to do so but would be much appreciated (at station & drive by). TIA!

I too would love to hear what this exhaust sounds like. And any comments on quality, easy of installation, etc would be great too.
