well yeah because in stock form the valves are closed from 1500-4k rpm, get a valve controller to keep the valves open all the time and its a game changer, all I did on mine was that and OAP and it sounds pretty tasty at most RPM's, over 5k it really shines though of course

I'm more than open to working a really sweet marketing discount on our Resonated OAP's for somoeone who can capture some before and after video to add to Mike's work. This really helps build the community understanding of the product's benefits. From my experience they are very stock-like in the sound department with PSE as Mike said, but you get the performance gains of the OAP. Please DM me if interested..

The resonated OAPs alone may not get the exotic tone change, but they are a really good addition to a stock car. So far nothing resembling drone can be detected to my ears, sound is present and linear. I think it has less drone than stock GPFs with valves forces open.
For my volume scale:
stock GT4 : 1
resonated OAPs: 6
Soul Valved rear + resonated OAPs: 8
Soul Valved rear + open OAPs: 10

Ship me that beast when your done.And in regards to the valve controller,. the Softronic tune will force the valves to remain open, but otherwise one will need to get a valve controller from Soul or one of the others that make it or do the DYI hack.

I may have a video soon, I was curious and swapped my rear Valved system for the stock box with the resonated over axle pipes. What I don’t have is video of my car stock with my camera for true apples to apples.
