EP1 owner here from NNJ (997.1tt w/ 6 speed) - we can meet up at some point if you want to hear it. Obviously if we meet up you won't hear it @ cold start (which only lasts a min or so anyway), but the sweet spot is up in the rev range or under a load in the 2k - 3k range. You also get the turbo whistle as well. IMO it's the best exhaust out there. And if needed - probably the best resale.

Stef ships the unit with tools, hardware, high temp grease, etc. I installed mine myself. I took my sweetass time as well to make sure it was right (I'm no mechanic). I labeled everything I removed, cleaned everything inside and out, blew/hosed out the I/Cs, put it all back. Even did my plugs since it was accessible.

Also had my little sidekick working on his ride....

Absolutely. Just PM me when you're around. I haven't driven the car in about 9 weeks so any chance I get I'm driving it!

I've got an EP2 on my '09 in Agoura and would be glad to connect sometime. I've been hitting various weekend cars n' coffee stuff around LA lately like the PECLA Morning Shift, if you go any of those. I went thru the same dilemma myself and finally pulled the trigger on the EP2 based really just on youtube vids, forum posts and speaking with Stef.

I'm for the GB and perhaps my friend Jim W.
Disclaimer I have a lead on a used one however, no response from the seller I messaged him a few hours ago.

Depends on your definition of drone lol Whatever "drone" it might have, it doesn't bother me.

My 1993 5.0 Mustang with Flowmasters droned lol

Thanks to Chris and Steve who responded to the sound check request, the EP-1 experience is back East, Steve was kind enough to send an intoxicating cold start video. Way better the "Dyson" stock exhaust.
The EP-2 will be here in SoCal at a C&C in 2 weeks.

Hey man. Totally thought the car I just bought may have been the one in your profile pic... lol. Even has the rear wing fixed in up position. BUT, mine has terra-cotta interior.

Will be the best investment and modification you could do to that car. Don’t be tempted for the other systems. I had the other systems and they just weren’t of the fit and quality. One was so protruding out of the rear bottom bumper that i couldn’t live with it. Aesthetically, nothing fits like the EP and nothing sounds like the EP. the other system I had sounded like a 4 cylinder tractor engine.
