So are you happy with the sound now? Is it similar at all to the real SVT sound? Which exhaust would you recommend? Any other advice would be great!

Thanks

When i first did the SVT Header and Hi-Flow Cat, it sounded like a can of pissed of Bees from miles away. I hated everytime i would got Wide Open Throttle because the bees would come out (sounded like complete crap!) I installed a resonator and the bees are now tamed. The car sounds like it did before i but the SVT Header on it.

But If you want your car to sound like a stock SVT, then you need to get all their stock exhaust parts, from the header to cat-back exhaust. Besides the stock SVT Exhaust, I'd suggest getting a resonated exhaust. Once you add a header to our cars, they sound like complete crap (opinions are subjective). If I could turn back time, i would have got a resonated Borla. I got my Magnaflow Exhaust for $267 shipped! 4 years ago. But with my resonated installed after my Header, it cost about the same if not MORE than if i would have done it right the first time. (I can't remember what the resonated cat-backs went for 4 years ago)
