I have the Motordyne dual Gamma system. I switched them because I got bored, but I still love both exhausts.

Thanks, I wish there was something to make it louder but without the rasp of tp's. I think I'm going to go with FI unless I can hear both FI and MD shockwave in person.

Thanks, I think I finally decided on FI and now deciding on some test pipes.

Congrats on finally making a choice lol. Its tough when your putting out that much money. It really comes down to sound. And youtube videos don't always cut it. Let us know how you like the FI exhaust when you get it.

I'll do up a video clip of my FI exhaust and my Berk HFC. I think it sounds simply awesome.

would anyone in the Northern NJ area have a MD exhaust? i'd LOVE to hear it in person because i'm trying to decide between the Gamma and the Shockwave. I keep hearing that the Shockwave is LOUD and i'd like to hear HOW loud.

Thank ya!

Dang wish I was closer. I'm in MD. I have both. The Gamma on a scale of one to ten is like a 4. The shockwave is like a 6.5/7.

The Gamma is probably pushing the limit of what's legal in CA (95dB at 4500 rpm, IIRC), if not slightly over. My breathing mods are Stillen intake, Z tube, MREV2 plenum, 5/16" spacer, and the MD gamma exhaust.
