I just changed out my sidepipe inserts to the 30" turbo spirals (for Corvettes, I had to shorten them a bit to make them fit). I was actually trying to get a little quieter but it did not happen--they're louder at idle and under acceleration but the sound is much nicer to my ear, like lovehamr's youtube video. At cruise speeds they're actually a bit quieter. I'll keep them if my nieghbors don't shoot me and the cops don't give me a ticket....or vice versa. I keep telling myself the sound in city traffic is just the white trash (such as myself) version of bad yet stupidly loud distorted rap "music," and there appears to be no shortage of that....

I went with the v-band clamps also for easier access should I need to make a change.
