Default got a borla xr-1 coming

I decided the hooker aerochamber was to quite and the cut-out was to loud.

I got the cut-out sold, so I ordered the borla xr-1 (12" case) and some traction bars. I should have it installed by this weekend. I'll get some footage up then. I was told the 06 headers fit the 07 NNBS. Is this correct, if so I may order some LT headers & ORY by the end of this week.

got the borla installed today. It sounds muck better

Does it take some time for the 12" oval xr-1 to break in. It's louder, but not too loud. I imagine that will change when I get my LT headers and ORY next week, lol.

get a sound clip up. I'm kinda in the same boat as you. I like the overall sound of the aerochamber, but a bit too quiet for my tastes. Thought about an XR-1 or even an SLP Loudmouth.

the aerochamber is too quiet with cats. you need to delete them cats for it to sound good.
