I had a 3 inch cat back for 2+ years. Good product and price. Others may disagree, but I was happy with them.

I have the Gibson 3 inch single outlet cat back system on my truck and I think that it sounds alright, sometimes I like the sound of it and other times I don't. The overall quality of the system is descent with no install problems.

I've had the Gibson stainless single in dual out cat-back on my truck for almost five years now, and one thing I can say is that it's held up great so far, and I drive the truck every day, including New Jersey winters. It's too quiet for my taste though, but it does have a decent, low sound. Can't really say that I felt a performance increase or not though...I thought I did when I first installed it, but that may have just been the placebo effect combined with my left foot getting heavier to try and hear what my exhaust sounded like. (Future plans include StainlessWorks long tubes and y-pipe, and eventually replacing the y junction with an x and runnin dual Magnaflow 4" round 14" mufflers)

I remember when i got my dynomouth exhaust on my camaro, i thought it was more sluggish. a placebo effect in reverse i guess, i was just very light on the gas because it got so loud once you reached 1/4 throttle or 2krpms, which ever came first.

I have had a gibson 3"in/ dual 2.5" out for about 3 years now, i like it, the fit and quality is great, it has a good tone at idle, not too loud though, and at WOT it can get decently loud. Overall I like it.

Same here, Ive had mine on for about a year and a half and have had no problems. have the setup that comes out behind both tiers. The sound is a little low for me at idel but if you step on it, it will roar. One thing though... The muffler is f'ing huge I think. But it is a good overall setup.

I've had my dual extreme, 3" in , dual 2-1/4" out, for about 3 years now. I like it a lot. Not real loud at idle, not a lot of drone, and it sounds really good when you romp on it.
