Default Tubi Exhaust possible purchase

So I think I'm going to bite the bullet and buy these. I'm just not overly thrilled with my fabspeed maxflows. Nice subtle throaty sounding exhaust but I love the way the tubi sounds. I've been searching for places that carry them and found the cheapest here: www.smokeysperformance.com

Does anyone else know a place selling them cheaper or is this the cheapest? Everywhere I've looked has been in the $2500 range w/o shipping.

Emerson @ last call racing, try there if you want.

BTW, Tubi Style mufflers are exceptional

I dont like tubi, I think they are too loud and too tinny. And cheap made, I had to reweld all the brackets. I got a set very similar to maxspeed motorsport complete header, cat, mufflers for 2700 but now they are about 3600. and sound fantastic.

Great to hear all the positive feedback on the Tubi exhaust. Waiting for a response back on availability. Hopefully, I can get these ordered by the end of the week.

We now offer Tubi systems on our online store. We've installed a few in our shop and the sound is intoxicating. Let us know if we can be of any help.

LOL! I was thinking the same and wanted to ask but I didn't want to be referred to YouTube. I've listened to probably all of those clips. Some sound better than others. Would really like to hear:

1) cold start Idle
2) warmed up rev
3) drive by normal acceleration.
4) drive by hard acceleration.

Thanks. I'll be in touch!

After my wedding in 4 weeks, I will also be in the market for an exhaust system.... love the sound of tubi but there are quite a few other options for half the price. I really cant make my mind up.
