2005 JBA Catback with Videos/Pics

Here it is,sounds pretty good to me and no rasp at all inside.
1st Video
Taking off slow:
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/5...D11E4EC12D.htm

2nd Video
Taking off a little faster:
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/B...D537C8BF8A.htm

3rd Video
4th Gear Flyby at about 120mph
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/9...B5AAE1E126.htm

4th Video
A little burnout
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/3...C0363C2F10.htm

Updated Video April 9th,Driving normal up to 50 mph to get an idea what it sounds like inside the car with the windows up.
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/B...9D0B0AC689.htm

In the Pics I had the exhaust painted with 1200* paint and I didn't use the clamps that came with it,I bought some Stainless ones.Clearance is very good and has a H pipe rather than X

Performance seems good to me,really hard to tell though I had a SW 3" Catback before.Nothing wrong with SW catback and a loved the sound I just sold it to get other things and I picked this up cheap.

Sounds great! That is the exhaust I am getting when they come out with the SS version. How much louder/deeper is it than the stock exhaust? And you call that a little burnout?....

I got mine from Massivespeed on Ebay. Packaging could have been a little better for the shipping, but it got here quick. I love it. I could stand it being a little louder, but I'm thinking that after the LTs go on it's going to be just right.

Cool videos. Painting them black was a pretty good idea. I'm not all that worried about them rusting out, but that looks a lot better.

Only performance mods are Volant CAI and JBA Catback.

Love that sound! I've got one coming to finish the rear split conversion on my 04, bought it from same place as you. Quick question though, how good is the quality and finish on the tips, and what diameter are they? I have a brand new set of 4" magnaflows that I can use if the ones on the JBA exhaust aren't that great.

Too bad he's out of those ($399.00) or I would have bought a set today. He's getting the SS kit and wants another $180+additional $10.00 shipping. Around $600.00 total, I'll hold off for the loud mouth system I see for around $629.00 shipped.

Yeah you might want to use those Magnaflow tips.The JBA's are same as stock at 3.5" but are not the greatest.They'll do but that would be the only thing that I would change,that and they seem to stick out to far for me.

How does it sound on the inside? Does it drone very loud or is it about the same as stock. On the website they claim to have little to no interior resonance. Let me know. I want a system that is not to loud at cruising speed. thanks.

That's sounds incredible and is one of the few cat-backs I'm considering to replace my current setup.
