Hmmm, that price does sound a little high if its used. Gibson has a decent sound too it but if it is loud you want then I dont think they are the way to go. They do rumble but are quieter compared to other brands.

The kit is BRAND NEW, not used.... I want like a medium tone. Not as loud as a Flowmaster, but just in the middle kinda. Is Gibson the way to go??... What about performance, does Gibson give some pretty good extra little ponies and torque???
Should i get it??

Reker,
You will not feel any power gain from the cat-back system and and probably a loss of torque. Start with getting more air in first with a larger throttle body.

Just need to get a stock throttle body off of a 318 or 360. The install is very easy but you have to put in a new throttle cable from a V8, and that is the most difficult part. some people have trouble with it, but the whole TB swap and cable swap took me about 30 minutes. Very easy to do and the results are miraculous. Best mod i have done so far. Fastman makes a good TB and so does F&B, but the cheapest way and with similar results is to go with just a stock V8 TB. I can answer any questions you have about the install, or about the cable swap. Let me know if you need any help.
