Meisterschaft GT2 + Fabspeed X-Pipe

***The Original Plan***

So I'm very close to buying a Fabspeed X-pipe from a forum member. I have the GT2 exhaust to go with the X-pipe and I'll be looking around for some HFC's, but what I want to know is what kind of sound to expect from this setup...any ideas?

I'll post pictures and reviews once I get the X-pipe installed by the way!


***Update Below***

Cat-less? I'm still going to have the primary cats, I'm just replacing the stock X-pipe for now until I find some HFC's...

You've probably seen my pics, but here's the link to the pics of my full set-up, including the catless x-pipe: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=304937

Also, here's the link to Niterider's full catless system installed: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthr...hlight=gintani

Hope I was of help.

I had the Meisterschaft GT2 complete setup.
I couldn't take it anymore. I put the stock X pipe back on. It's too loud, but that's just me.

Awesome, post videos as I'm sure it'll sound crazy. Get ready for huge HP/TQ increases over the fabspeed xpipe.

good luck (your going to be a cop magnet) , I have the Meisterschaft GT with Encore HFC /w resonators and its FUCKING nuts.. I can't even punch the throttle cause its to loud.

I have an appointment with a muffler shop later this week because im going to add 2 or possibly 4 resonators to my setup to help tone it down
