Anyone running Kinetix HFC and an axleback?

Looking for reviews but not many people with Kinetix HFC's or videos or reviews of them. Saw one video on youtube but he had a full Invidia catback so they might change the sound. Was thinking of running a HFC with just an axleback for now.

I ran my Kinetix with just the Tanabe axleback and it sounded okay but I switched to full catback once I had the chance and it sounds 100x better.

I just installed the kinetix hfc on my car yesterday. I have a custom exhaust. Basically I have a deeper tone especially when WOT. However I'm about to buy the invidia catback. Hope thay helps.

Got mine put on yesterday....

Little bit more vibration at idle, nothing to bad. No CEL yet.

Rasp is definitely there, hope it goes away after it gets a little more broken in.

Other than that the car sounds amazing! Butt dyno says yes as well, although not a whole lot.

There it is installed, sounds good but has rasp. Hopefully that goes away after a few hundred miles or so.

I don't recall mine sounding like that but then again I had a cold air intake on mine. Let it break in and see what it sounds like in a few weeks.

That is my intake setup, just for reference. I just hope that rasp goes away.
