Default Straight Install Question (PSE) without the wiring since most here disconnect

Which muffler installation without cats or headers is loudest PSE or Fabspeed (I cannot tell by listening to the video sound clips)?

In addition, I found out that we could purchase the PSE mufflers (the pair) for around 1,386 (without the wiring). I need to know if the wiring is necessary to install the PSE muffler and pulling the orange cable for max sound.

If straight install is the PSE mufflers on the relax position OPENED for sound at ALL rpm levels (without the wiring installation or vacuum line)?

Has anyone successfully completed a muffler swap to PSE without wiring?

IMO I cannot justify spending extra money and effort and later disconnect the system to allow PSE on ALL the time. I want the loudest muffler setting on ALL the time (on start-up & all rpm levels).

I had PSE installed by doing a simple muffler swap. On all the time. No wiring, no plugs, no vaccum, no duster, no windex, no nada

Do not know fabspeed in terms of sound. Never heard one in real life. PSE takes time....my first 300-400 miles were disappointing. But then sounded great. Tubi is another option but $$$.

Search for my name, I had posted vids of before and after. Keep in mind that it is was when new and sound not to its full potential. One more thing...PSE a little heavier than Stock by about 8 pounds.

i believe if you can connec the PSE without the wiring. the muffler will be on loud all the time. basically its just a swap of the cans. btw where are you getting the PSE for that price? btw i will shortly be having a fabspeed sport muffler for sale if anyone is interested.

DrDrilZ,
I will first need to know for sure if the straight swap is doable (rest position will be opened on the PSE mufflers), if so, I will immediately order the PSE. I do not want to divulge the source right now until I place my order first. Once I receive delivery of the PSE, I will let you know my source.

He may have that price for mufflers only, but he does need tailpipes for about another $300. While that is a good price, IMO it's nothing special that he needs to be quiet about.

The source was the only dealership that would sell me the PSE muffler without the wiring or tailpipes during the time of purchase. However, this is old news now!

Chill dude, I was replying to Sharptt's comment about your lack of follow up. And a not so special price.
