If you want to stop by the shop, I am sure we could make you something that could mate up and kill some, if not all, of the drone. The J pipes might work really well with this.

The Kooks and ARH LT headers and X pipe go all the way back to where the factory mufflers bolt on. So if you have a stock G8 GT muffler to use as a template that is exactly the same size and fit that we need. I'm running stock mufflers now with Kooks LT + their catted X pipe for the sole reason that I don't want to add any drone. If there was an axle back system that didn't drone (or that you could tune the drone via the J pipe) and give a little more rumble over stock I think they would sell like hot cakes.
2014 SRT Viper TA
2009 Liquid Red G8 GT
Drivetrain: 25% UDP, Solo axle back
Suspension / Brakes: BMR f/r swaybars, radius rod bushings, trailing arms,
toe rods, subframe connectors, tunnel brace, crossmember bushings, DBA slotted rotors,
hawk ceramic pads
Show: VE SS Black/Red Steering Wheel, VE Black/Red Shifter, Leather Console Lid, 20% Tint
I will let the owner know this information. We need an exact measurement though, as we would use some type of flange to bolt it on and that would not leave too much room for error. If we can get someone with Kooks LT in the shop, it would be a done deal. Even the other LT headers are welcome and we could make a kit to mate up to that also. We just need a car in the shop. Someone in Buffalo or Mississagua want to help out??

Yea, "wrong Doug" :-) lol
I guess now I'm rightfully the "up north Doug" ... aka zepcom
In case anyone hasn't heard, my g8 has been the "first J-pipe test mule" car, and this rough-beta system has been on my car for over a week now, and still ZERO drone. I haven't had the radio on at all for the past week -- too busy listening to the awesome sounds that the car is making now.
Admittedly though, I do not yet have a CAI and I am not planning a cam or headers. My car is my DD so I'm happy where it is, and the new exhaust makes it perfect.
The amount of R&D that has gone into this, and the persistence from the SOLO crew is nothing short of amazing.
I think it would be cool if Norm could stop by the buffalo store and volunteer his car with his headers for the purpose of R&D. I would imagine that the Magnacharger that he has on his car would further enhance this SOLO research project. Norm, if you're familiar with Delaware and Sheredin (Near Paddock Chevrolet) then that's where Mufflerman is. Your car would be a very good test of the new offerings coming soon from SOLO, as you have some pretty advanced mods for sure.
Can't wait until this is released so everyone else can enjoy what I've been experiencing for a week now!

If those bolt up to stock, then they will bolt up to our cat back. What we would like is a long tube header that goes to the rear axle...that way we can make an axle back exhaust kit that fits those long tube headers.
