Art pipes and top speed axleback

Does anyone have this set up?
What are your thoughts?
A sound clip would be ideal, I cannot find one anywhere!

Thank-you for your feedback I thought this would be a rare setup and hopefully a unique sound.

I have fast intentions test pipes and top speed axle back. Literally sounds like sex! And also as an added bonus, spits lots of flames.

I have the top speed without mufflers and be warned, the cold starts are obnoxiously loud. In addition, for regular, everyday driving, it is a bit too loud. But for those summer cruising / spirited driving days....I absolutely love the combination. Pick your poison, I guess lol

I'm about 2 months behind I know! But I'm about to buy this axle back but with the muffler can you say it will be a little more tamed and not sound like a straight pipe.I did that with my borla cat back and it was crazy loud now I have a borla pro xs muffler and it's just dull. I want this but I don't not want constant loud.I also don't have hfc. Think I'll be good?

yes the muffler's are a lot more quiet than the straight pipe since you will have 2 of them. It still sounds good even with stock cats

Personally I think a "straight pipe sound" is raspy, but I'm not sure if that's what you're asking. The axleback alone sounds throaty but it's not raspy, and it can be loud for people's taste because the axleback is essentially a muffler delete. But "loud" is all subjective so I'm not sure I can give you a definitive answer.

My understanding is that Borla is generally on the quieter end of exhausts but I've never heard one in person so I can't give you a comparison.

With that being said, I enjoyed the axleback on its own, but it wasn't loud in the cabin with all the sound deadening (definitely audible, but not loud) so I paired it with some HFC.

If you get the axleback with the mufflers, it's way too quiet. Most comparable to maybe a slightly louder Civic Si with the stock performance exhaust. The axleback without the mufflers make a big difference.

Don't think this is the answer you were looking for but I hope it helps.

I sold/traded my Tanabes for a Manzo axle back, it sounds EXACTLY the same lol. I have Beluga resonated test pipes and was going to weld HFC into them but am waiting until inspection time. I'll take a video of the sound, its amazing...

When you say quiet, do you mean alone or with the berk HFCs?

I have both FI RHFC and Top Speed axle back exhaust. Got just mufflers at first, sounds really good. Gives it a nice deep ramble. Add on the FI RHFC and it'll make it 3x as loud.

I wouldn't get berk HFCs, I remember people saying you get a rasp
