Alibaba Valved Exhaust Fresh info

What's up guys and gals.
I got my alibaba (Bomiz) exhaust in this week with the vacuum valves. Installed yesterday!

Paid around $1200 shipped.

This is just some info I figured is worth sharing.

First off, the exhaust looks great, quality is 8/10!

Second, fitment is perfect! Only thing I would change is one of the exhaust hangers is a little too big, otherwise perfect! And tips are very good as well!

Installing the vacuum pump and lines.. it's very very simple. I ran the vacuum line through a grommet in the battery tray and put the vacuum pump under the cover in the trunk.
For the power source, it comes with a 12v cigarette lighter plug. (Is that the right name?) I ran that between the rear seat back rest and bottom. Then the power line plugged into the 12v socket in the arm rest.

So after only 2 days of use, it's no where near loud enough (for my taste.) Closed sounds factory and open sounds good but just not there yet. I have everything factory besides the axle back. So very soon I will be cutting out the resonators. Basically is you have the option to get the test pipes… do it hahah

No I don't have any sound clips yet for everyone who is going to ask lol.

Get rid of your x pipe all together.

Removing the resonators will make it raspy, and adding test pipes will sound okay at best.

I have these paired with the Challenge Sport X Pipe w/ HFCs and it sounds amazing.
