Default Characterize the sound of an ES oval muffler.

My T1R SPL system got damaged in a recent accident so I need to replace it. I'm contemplating getting one of the Kteller setups with the ES oval muffler (2.5").

Can some ES owners characterize the sound? Is it stock-like? Raspy/ricer-noise? I currently have a high-flow cat installed, and I know that will affect the sound too.

Thanks in advance.

With a 14" resonator. Is it annoying while cruising (constant RPM)?

Mine sounds like **** at 3k rpm.. 2 1/4'' mandrel bent piping, 14'' resonator to a 2.5'' ES oval. It has a slight buzz at 3k rpm, but other than that, it sounds ok.

2.25" straight piping, no cat, just pipe from the header to the muffler. very light and raspy. annoying buzz between 3 and 3.5 rpm.

soon to reroute piping and add a cat and resonator to tone it down a bit
