ZZP 2.5 w/cat and ark catback

Here is the deal. I have this setup i just installed it last night and i hate the way it sounds... please no flaming telling me i sound like a ricer i wish i never modded the exhaust because of the sound i got. here is a video clip of it. im going to try to silence the exhaust and if i cant im putting the old one back on(took it off in 1 piece)
please no flaming I already feel like **** whenever i drive the car. its sooooooooo loud
i'll get another video of it inside the car later

have someone drive next to you and get on it, they will hear the difference...

its just like mine, sounds sweet on idle rev, but under load it goes to crap

a real camera will help thats for sure... cuz it sounded kinda muddy and yes i mean a second resonator... i think the issue is the catback... cuz i know someone with it and it sounds good but it gets loud , so adding more depth and open....ness from the header dp combo is just gonna make it worse

i will eventually if i cant get the sound i like, the stock dp got all effed up on the bung where the o2 sensor goes because whoever put it together cross-threaded it. so if i clean up the threads i will def give it a try, only take 20 mins to swap out video is 31%uploaded stand by...

here is the in-car link

You do also have to give the exhaust time to break in. Tone will change slightly (most likely get deeper) with time.

My ss/sc downpipe was used.. when I put it on it didnt sound much different at first but with in 100 miles of driving it got louder and deeper. Try it out for awhile and just avoid the cops with spl meters
