I do not have that set up but I do have an X-pipe. Absolutely no drone.

Amazing...just had Belangers, RT High flow cats, and the RT cat-back system with NO MUFFLERS and their X-pipe installed...

THIS is what a Viper should sound like. Agressive rumble at idle, LOUD note at throttle, popping during shifting and decel...basically sounds amazing.

RT makes a GREAT system, and the pipes look great on it!

Is it easy to install? Can I do it myself?

Anyway you can get a soundclip, that's pretty similar to what I want except I'll use Borla/Mopar and no-cats, but I'd really like to hear your RT setup and x-pipe, thanks in advance if you can get a clip on here.

I don't know how anybody can like the sound without an x-pipe, all the setups I've heard honestly remind me of like what a big block Volvo or Honda would sound like, except for the ones with an x-pipe, makes such a big difference.

I have to make a decision before the 31st, I just Don't know if I will have a drone sound that will drive me nuts, I also was wondering how easy is it to install, do I need new clamps or any other parts?

My bad, I directed the soundclip towards commoditybroker scince he already has the setup, but you can too after you make your decision I've never done an exhaust yet on a Viper so I don't know how easy it is or what needs to be done, but I know the x-pipe will drastically cut down drone, talk to some of the tuners (or even owners on here) as they highly recommend adding one. Personally drone doesn't bother me, but a lot of poeple who have the Borla/Mopar exhaust which is very loud said it droned a lot but after installing an x-pipe there was hardly anymore drone and the sound was so much better.

Many people do experience drone but that has not been the case for me. I have an X-pipe with 4 inch tips (see below) and there is absolutley no drone.

Jon B has the reducers. I bought some when I purchased the Random Tech High-Flows and spinner mufflers. I believe they are $10 each.
