My thoughts on the RandomTech catback....

A lot quieter than my 80 series mufflered 86 TA.
A lot quiet than what i figured a straight through would be.
nice deep bass idle, and with liberal throttle, it gets a snazzy louder bass to it. heh

All in all, good stuff.

It may get a little louder as time goes on. My hooker cat-back was super quiet when i first had it put on. After about a year the thing really woke up and became a lot louder. louder is always better

I love my random tech exhaust, very loud, very throaty and bassy, of course I also have a hefty valvetrain of a .530 lift, and a 236 duration. But I think it's a great system. My friend has one too, and his sounds awesome too. But I had the system on my 305 too, and it was very quiet on it, so if you don't have the engine to back it up, then it's not that loud, but with my 350 it sounds great.
