I have always found that system intriguing. But so few people have had one it's hard to know if resonance is an issue. Also the $1800 price tag is offputting.

I've since learned that the mufflers Callaway used are super turbos, and so I wonder if the "mixing chamber" is just an off-the-shelf part too? I think I might be a little upset if I'd paid $1800 to find out a) the system is not stainless, and b) that a local guy could have thrown the parts together for much less. I realize you are paying for their research into which parts to put together, and for the fit/finish and tips, but still...

Anyway, I'll let you know if the system changes. I sort of seem to recall with the Aurora that it got quieter after a few days/weeks of use. Though that car had some issues with where the Corsa system met the stock system in that it didn't clamp tight. They fixed it in person and it's been fine for the 5 years since.
