Vibrant Exhaust Axle-Back System

Hello All,

Just looking for some input on vibrant exhaust axle-back systems.

There are two available, the TPV (part#1784) or
the Stainless StreetPower (part#1703).

Any past experiences or input on these items would be greatly appreciated.
If you have one of these systems, sounds clips and pictures would be excellent. Thank you for all of your help,

Warren

I've actually heard the vibrant axel back before and to be honest... it sounds pretty decent.

The Vibrent is what the guys at GSC Motorsports rant and rave about for a good exhaust system. Especially for 7thgen civic... They build race cars on the drag circut and toy around with expensive sports cars like the Supra, 350Z and Suby STi...I trust them...BTW it's a local shop in Charleston, SC. They dyno everything

It will be added shortly, there was never much demand for it.

We had it on our site for 2-3 years and sold only 1 unit.

No it is not a bad piece at all, it is just that most people went with all of the gossip brands like GReddy, Tanabe, A'PEXi, HKS.......

Which version would you like more info on?

TPV Cat-back 11784 (like an N1 muffler)
TPV Axle-back 1784 (axle back version of above)
Mid-pipe 1765
Street Power Cat-back 11703 (like a Tanabe SHM)
Street Power Axle-back 1703 (axle back version of above)

I have a vibrant axleback exhaust. It sounds pretty good. I'm pretty sure its the TPV axle back. Heres a clip of my exhaust. The clips isnt the best but hope it helps. The exhaust was very easy to install due to the hangers already welded. http://media.putfile.com/vibrant-exhaust

hmm, sounds a bit raspy but that could just be the tiny mic on the camera getting more than a ear-full. Where'd you get it and how much did you pay?

Sorry I asked before I saw your post. $246, not bad at all. How much for shipping. But, damn that HKS axle-back is a slight bit sexier.

I thought so. You're welcome. Do you have any other pics. I'm curious,it looked to be a little rusted.

Go onto our site, add the item to the cart, and plug in your zip. I would imagine $30-45

Good stuff, I think that might look about sexy on my 04, I like the bumpers better.

Teah, I've got to talk to the warden first. Not too mention I'd like to see more pics. It looks like it might stick out way too far... Oh and what is the finish like?
