Arrow ETS exhaust users... Love it/hate it?

I'm looking into changing my exhaust up. Right now I have the buschur racing exhaust with the magnaflow muffler. Dont get me wrong it sounds real good but I'm looking for a change. I really like ETS products. I've heard a couple youtube video's of them but they all sound different IMO. Some sound like a honda S2000 kind of. Is that true or am I completely wrong? Please leave thoughts on the ETS exhaust!

-Videos are always welcome!

Well also I dont like how close to the ground the magnaflow muffler is. I am about to order some coilovers and that will put it that much closer to the ground. It sounds and looks amazing but the big "raked up" muffler will be scrapping easier.

oh ok i understand now. i would say have the muffler relocated, but it would be easier to just sale it and get a different system. ams's sounds nice and has a nice stance.

I bought their "down pipe back" system a few years ago and honestly fitment was sub-par, sounded ok, it's just your average 3" SS exhaust with a muffler Evo sound.

Currently running open DP and looking for new options.

WOW open Dp on a DD? That's gotta be hella loud!

So has anyone ever personally heard the ETS? Besides videos?

Im gonna be buying there dp w/ o2 dump, there test pipe and single exhaust in a couple days....from pics it seems like it fits nice (alot better then the ams exhaust, which to me sits to low) and after talking to michael at ets he said there downpipe creates more power then the one ams makes due to there options of having there wastegate exit seperate from the turbo so there is no bottle neck (either you can have it recirculate or dump freely) all the products im purchasing are found here:

Yea I talked to him a couple weeks ago bc I bought their upper/lower intercooler piping! The only thing I'm worried about is the exhaust being too raspy. That's why I'm waiting on 1st hand experiences!

I have had the Buschur and the ETS exhausts. It is loud, but I loved it! I currently got rid of the Aero turbine muffler which they no longer offer b/c of exhaust laws here in WA and getting bothered for it.

Never herd the ETS exhaust but they make great products so im sure it great. I run a busher with the billet muffler and a test pipe and its pretty loud but sounds great.
