KCR Exhaust review (X02)
^^ There is drone when you first pull off from a light, then it dies down. I have been told that resonators will help eliminate that, so I guess I can be the guinea pig. I bought 2 12 inch resonators, will attach them right where the extenders are at.....
small amount of drone speeding up, it honestly doesn't bother me at all though. the only time the drone is really noticeable is getting on the gas say going up a hill in a high gear, then it is annoying. new resonators would prob fix that though. or just downshift speed up and then get back into high gear, w/e.
Got the resonators on, and have to say that the sound is now MUCH cleaner. No more of that farting noise when the car is under load. Gonna have to polish them when I have the time, but the upshot is it no longer sounds ricey under load, which is the only thing I really disliked about the exhaust. They are 3 inch resonators with 2.5 inlet and outlet.
I'll try to post a sound clip later this week. Still sounds awesome under WOT, and now sounds mean, but without the drone at the lower revs. About 2X as loud as stock, and now sounds much cleaner. A MUST for anyone who has this exhaust, in my opinion. Hard to find polished resonators though......

Can't wait to hear a sound clip or video!
Got mine for $310 shipped on e-Bay (not painted), but I havent seen any others for that price. Closest I have seen to that price since is $375. Fitment is spot on and it's poly!
sweet.
Im considering pulling the trigger on the X02 clone. Does the exhaust have a drone that's intrusive on daily driving, or is it manageable from day to day? Also, approximately how much did everyone pay for install of the exhaust?
