Clip of full kooks system?

Does anyone have a video or sound clip of the Kooks headers and 3" catback. It seams that everyone has the kooks/corsa combo. Why does no one just go with a whole kooks system? Actually a clip of any full length headers with the kooks catback would sound about the same...anyone?

Yes....sounds good. I would love to hear some in-cabin videos and/or some drive by video.

That system isn't cheap though....but I guess none of them are.

Another question....since it's a 3" cat-back did you have to get another tunnel brace or add washers to the factory one to make it clear the exhaust?

Those are the only videos I took. Inside the car, it's pretty quiet, don't get the real sound until you roll the windows down.

I had mine installed by a local shop. They may have added some washers to clear the 3" pipes but I haven't looked that closely. I'll take a look this afternoon.

I have the Kook's setup and love it. I got a deal that I couldn't pass up from Maryland Speed. This isn't cabin video but this is a dyno run that I had done. It's not behind the car but you can still hear what it sounds like. Crusing around normal it's really tame but when you put your foot into it the exhaust comes alive. At 70 - 75 mph headed to Camaro5 Fest I noticed a little cabin noise in the rolling hills but nothing excessive.
I did have to add a few washers to clear the tunnel brace it's one of those things nobody knows about unless you tell them. I will eventually upgrade to the Barton tunnel brace

Found this one on YouTube. Sound nice!


I'll have to call Maryland Speed because all the MSRP that I've seen is like $2,100-$2,500 for the whole setup. Definately steep on the price.
