Received the shipment on 4/4. Fit and finish are great. Finished the install today 4/5. Sound is just what I was looking for.
I had been trying to find a used set of Corsa Touring catbacks, as I didn't wish to spring for the bucks to buy new. Long story short, I got a used kwicklift and a set of great catbacks for the price of new Corsas,
My only complaint (and seveal others have posted the same complaint) was that the SS bandclaps that come with the XSPower, can't achieve the grip required to prevent the mufflers from rotating around the inlet pipe. Therefore, I was not able to achieve a secure installation. The standard u-bolt trype of exhaust clamp did the trick. I wasn't able to find Stainless ones locally, so I used steel temporarily while SS ones from Summit are delivered. A few photos are attched.
All in all, I am really satisfied.

Thanks for the update!!!
We have tried a few revisions of the clamps so far and the issue really lies in the material of the piping, the 321 is just tough stuff, simple as that! The u-bolts really do the trick as far as a nice tight and direct clamp!
Thanks again for the post, and glad you love it!

Who needs a system that will turn heads, drop jaws, and keep your significant other happy with a no drone cruise?

Installed mine!
2001 Z06 stock cam, Belanger LT headers, Stock cats/H-Pipe.
Love um! Quiet on cruise no drone with a killer tone under throttle! I'm sure the Procharger and the Blower cam will open it up even more.
Cold start idle clip
Warmed Up rev clip!
