agreed. I've had the nameless axle back muffler delete on both a WRX and an STI, and it was loud on both. My next step will have cans. But I'm in the same boat as you. I want that rumble, but not to the point where I can hear it all the damn time.

So which one did you have or hear personally? I can't imagine a muffler delete (if anything like nameless) ever being labeled "tame". My state troopers would also have a different opinion, ask me how I know

 

[dorsodurojohn]

Alphafert, you have mufflers with the nameless?

I just ordered this directly from nameless. 5" mufflers/4" tips axle back. they tossed in the hangers and free shipping. Expect it next Tuesday at my doorstep.

will do. I didn't like how low the 3" muffler delete unit hung, so hoping this is better.

I don't know if the OEM hangers would have been any different since I didn't try them. I wish I could get them a little higher up. And maybe I could with the smaller holes in the hanger, I don't know. But here's how they turned out.

Nameless axleback 5" mufflers/4" cans. They claim its a 5 out of 10 on the sound scale on their website. They say the muffler delete is a 10/10, and stock being 0/10.
I would say it's more like a 7/10 personally. Still could get the coppers attention IMO.

yeah those look like they would work better.. I'm fairly certain the OEM are almost identical to the Nameless mounts.
5" muffler/4" tips

**EDIT*** to answer the question how do I like them.
I like them better than the muffler delete, that was pretty obnoxious. They don't drone, but you can always hear them if you know what I mean. it's not that inner ear constant irritant, just that you know they are there. Turn the radio on and they are mostly forgotten.
the look is nice, the 4" tips fill out the opening nicely too as you can see above.
all in all I'm happy with the purchase.
