MPX Exhuast vs Turbo XS RFL

Thinking about switching Exhaust currently. I was wondering what you guys thought of the two.

ZFR Catless. It sounds good now. it could be louder ...How loud is the RFL?

Thanks for the input guys.

Well the rfl sounds alot louder than the FL for sure in the videos. But it sounds really good I know a few people are running the rfl here and could give you better feedback

The rfl with a zfr and catless dp is stupid loud. It does sound pretty good with the k04 though. I don't have a rfl, but it's just a 3" straight pipe like my zzp setup. It was just way too damn loud with the 6758 for my liking so I ended up installing a small resonator to kind of tame the volume a bit. I'd say go for the FL if it were me.

I have the RFL with a K04R and I love it. Yes, it's loud but it's not too bad honestly. At cruise, it's dependent upon your speed but there is little to no drone in the city. The highway is a different story.

It's not quite a 100% straight pipe, it's got a good sized resonator right off of the DP flange and is similar to the stock exhaust in that regard.

Drone doesn't get to be too bad unless you're going up-hill and really putting a load on the motor. I drive 70/30 hwy/city for work and it's really not that bad but it's there. Nothing the stereo can't help with

Shut up, you. Your opinion is null and void.

I have the full mpx exhaust with catless down pipe and love it. But then again I don't really care to get noticed. It helps to break more hearts when it's quiet until full throttle.

If and when you sell that MPX catback, let me know how much shipped to 77504 I may be interested if the deal is right. I live right near MPX but looking for a good deal. I'm not looking for loud, I'm still on the stock catback with a catless dp and ZFR setup.

The bigger turbine really lets the LNF sing. I've made several setups for mine and after 1 day I usually end up welding the stock stuff back on. I'm more into the deep, and quiet tone rather than volume, guess I'm getting old hahaha.
