Question about 5zigen Fireball catback....
I'm thinking about getting the fireball catback for my 99 GS.
For those you have this exhuast or who have heard it, how does it sound? I have done searches and read reviews, it does seems like the catback is quieter than those with the axle back.
I would like the exhaust to be fairly quiet at idle and cruising, but wouldn't mind it to growl a little in wot. I do realize that any aftermarket exhaust is going to be louder than stock, but I'm worried that its going to get annoyingly loud around town and on the hwy.
Does anyone have or heard this catback? I know people say its loud, but I would prefer to hear from those with first hand experience. On a scale, how much louder is it than stock, or how does it compare to other catbacks. Sound clips in car and outside of the car would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!!

I have the 5Zigen catback and I don't know where you got your information from but the catback is louder than the axle back.
Here's my setup, test pipe & 5Zigen catback.
It's about 5x's as loud as stock at WOT. At idle & cruising it's just about perfect, nice & deep. It's louder in my car because I have the entire back of the car stripped down to metal so you probably want more opinions from other people.
Mine does get annoying on the highway, anything over 75 and I'm screaming just to talk. It does set off alarms if you rev or drive in a parking deck.
Here's a pretty sh!tty sound clip from the inside of my car 5Zigen.mp3
