Default least NOISY cats?

Hey all,
Which cats do u think are the least noisy and softest cats out of RT, Kinetix and Crawford AND which cats do you think provide the biggest power gains or is there a conflict between noise and performance?

I am relatively certain that most people will agree that the Kinetics are the LEAST NOISY... (Especially if you're talking about "raspy".)

I saw somewhere a flow test and the RTs flowed the best, but the others wee very close.

Personally, for the price as well as sound and customer service, you can't go wrong with Kinetix Cats!

Default CRAWFORD

I will put in a vote for the Crawfords. Not Raspy. Can feel the small HP difference. YOU CAN NOT BEAT THE SERVICE. I'm pleased not to loud not to soft just right. Quality looks good even though you will never see them.

Default KINETIX

I have the KINETIX cats and they sound great! I think that the cats make my stock exhaust sound like a Borla system.

As for performance...
I can't honestly say that I notice any difference in power with the cats but definitely have a nice sound. Not raspy at all.

I believe the Kinetix and Crawford's came from the same CATS maker. They're not R/T.

Kinetix cats and borla here... I still have to roll down my windows to really hear my exhaust. It's not loud at all.

Default Crawford

Kinetix and Crwaford and definitely not the same Cat. I believe Kinetix uses Carsound Magnaflow. I don't know who Crawford uses, I should ask Doug. They may be randomtech. Kinetix has some fitment issues, R/Ts are falling appart inside. The Crawfords are great. Mine have a deep mellow sound until you get on them, then they howl. They are, IMO, the best cat out there. The workmanship was first rate and there were no fitment issues.

I have the Ultimate Racing ones on my car - also uses Magnaflow Carsound, and the car sounds perfect IMHO!
