Vibrant Performance

Post by ShotInTheDark »

I recently have been in contact with a person from this company about a situation I had with a Strut tower brace that he graciously solved for me. I recieved an email todat stating that the have developed an axle back exhaust system for the vibe. I will find out pricing and if the ability to group buy would be an option.

no, I bought one from a reseller in North Carolina via a ebay auction and when it was shipped it was missing one end. So he never replied to my emails even after I bought insurance on the shipping. I contacted Vibrant and they sent me a whole brand new bar! Now I have 2 and can switch the bar from blue to silver if I want which was really over the top from them.

From what I hear, it sounds pretty Ricey. Not recommended. Better off with a cat-back system anyways.

I dont know if they have one for you guys yet or what?, but there is a GB going on 9thgen right NOW!http://9thgencorolla.com/forum...46274I dont know why some of the matrix guys think it sounds "ricey" , but it sounds close to our TRD exhaust....not too loud! thats why im getting it.I can't wait until I get the rest of my exhaust. I should be putting everything on all at once so the vibrant exhaust might have to sit in my room for a little while.

After listening to some sound clips at http://www.9thgencorolla.com/f...haustI must say that I really like the sound of this exhaust. Where it's only an axle back I'm not sure what hp increase you would get though or if it would only be a sound change.
