Never really dyno'ed it so not sure about gains, butt dyno tells me there's some gain, though not much.

Sound level is quieter than Remus or Eisenmann Race, but louder than Remus or Eisenmann Sport. There's no annoying drone at cruising. It sounds really nice when you are at higher rpm.

Thanks .... for Flaking out.

Makes one wonder why you left a real buyer hanging, exhaust probably drones like a biotch.

Why am I saying this? First, I would advise anyone thinking of buying from this guy to think twice, he is flaky. PMed him early in the week to see if he was willing to meet up to hear the exhaust. Says sure, I travel into Seattle, for work, and sent PMs back and forth, and exchanged contact info. We set a time and place, the lobby of the hotel I stayed at, which he says is practically across the steet from his place. Then the dude disappears, never gets in contact with me. No calls, no PMs nothing. Flaky.

Your loss. I actually had cash on hand was prepared to make the deal. I even had arrangements lined up to have it sent to me by a friend IF the product was as advertised. Guess we'll never know...

Kev is a good seller. I bought a new set of wheels off of him, they were exactly as described, and he shipped them the next day. I had them within 3 days, and they were perfect. From my experience, I would buy from him again, and might...

Sir, I am a poor new intern working at a hospital. My hours are unpredictable at best. Sorry for flaking out but I don't have much choice. I didn't get home until 9pm that day and you were probably checked in at Sea-Tac at that point. You have every right to be angry, but bashing me like that is not likely to get you any where. Again, I apologize for being flaky, but starting out as a new intern is not easy.

Andy,

Thanks for the kind words. You were lucky that I haven't really started working at that time so I was able to get it out quick. Nowadays, we might need to work around my crazy schedule a little bit since I'm in the S/MICU for the next two months.

Not sure what transpired between you and Kev, but I can vouch that the exhaust does NOT drone. I have a Fame myself, been on the car for 4 months, super happy. Between 1800-2200 rpm, there might be a little resonance, but even the stock exhaust does that. Good luck in your search for an exhaust - you won't be disappointed by the Fame.

Like I said, your loss. A simple call, text, PM, whatever saying you can't make it is all a decent person does when he needs to cancel an appointment. "Poor new intern" has nothing to do with the fact you wasted my time.

"bashing me like that is not likely to get you any where" I am just letting everyone know that you flaked out thats all, and flaked out on a person who actually travelled 3000 miles and made a point to see you.

To Kev's supporters (e.g. Askiles) : Everything I wrote is factually true, and undisputed by Kev, so you may have had a better interaction/sale with him, but that does not mean he was in the wrong this instance. Therefore, my words of advise to anyone looking to buy from him are valid.

I accept your apology and so we're done here.

It's loud only when you step on the gas and the tach goes past 4K. Under 4K, it's just a nice rumble not much louder than stock.

WA or OR owners are welcome to drop by and listen to the exhaust in person before making a decision.
