Hi guys! I know there's been a lot of posts of people wanting to hear sound clips from different exhaust systems. I just finished installing Random Technology's 3-inch high flow cats, silencers and muffler delete cat back. It's a little late in the evening so I just recorded a quick start up, rev and idle clip. I can record more clips if anyone is interested in anything in particular. I would still like to make a recording of it driving away. As a side note, my 97 GTS is stock except for the smooth tubes and K&N. No headers, just the stock exhuast manifold.
I absolutely love the sound at idle. Very mean and very low, and just loud enough for people to notice. While driving, it's loudest at about 3k rpms. Might be a little too loud for some people, but it sounds great to me. I also find that if I want it to be quieter, I simply shift before hitting 3k. While cruising you can just hear a slight rumbling out back. It's very nice. Just enough to be heard, but not enough to detract from a conversation or a good song on the radio. At WOT it sounds mean, but doesn't actually get much louder than it normally is. I like that, as my Z06 used to be incredibly loud at WOT and attract all kinds of unwanted attention (not to mention going over the db limit at the autocrosses). And the best part, absolutely NO RASPINESS at all, ever! This is something I was worried about, but it's completely non existant. Overall, my Viper kind of sounds like a big bore exotic motor. I don't know how else to explain it. You can hear that there's more than 8 cylinders churning away, but you can also tell that it's huge displacement.
Anyhow, here's the link to the .wav file (turn on your sub!):

Nice job
If you'd like anything else, let me know (longer idle clip, driving away, etc.) I'm glad to be able to help out!
