I hope this can help others who are wondering what some of the different exhaust sound like. This includes exhaust systems for both the N/A and GXP. I, personally, have had the SOLO MACH, SOLO Street Race, Magnaflow, SOLO SQR-2, and currently the SOLO RCD-II and SOLO HF Cat all installed on either my first N/A Solstice and now my current GXP. Feel free to add more links to this page if you have other videos or sound clips. I added a humorous burnout clip also where the guy stalls out his new Saleen Mustang. It's pretty amusing.

Solo Mach Split Duals with midstream resonator for 2.4 NA. Start up and drive by video..

Also can hear the GM CAI when backing out onto street.

Solo exhaust is from stock cat back.

I know I'll get a load of flames for this but anything other than a stock exhaust on a Solstice just sounds like another rice burner. I can't stand it.:barf:

I wouldn't say it sounds like a rice burner, far from it.
It is different though. The good thing is that you CAN make get them so they are not so loud. They key is performance. The sound is like deciding what color you want to paint your house, you want the house but ya just not sure if you like that bright orange paint job!

They do not sound like a rice burner at all IMO. I think I actually heard one exhaust through that whole mix that I didn't like, and it was raspy. Could have been the video recording, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't.

IMO, they don't sound like v6s or v8s but they sound like very aggressive four cylinders. I would match them to the tone of a Neon SRT-4 actually. It's the only car I've ever heard that actually sounds like ours. Cobalt SS's sound like crap or at least every single one of them I've heard. And any other four cylinder is from Japan or China. Something about the resonanace of those motors :puke:

The Moderators should make this thread a sticky. Obviously a lot of work went into the original post and others will find this resource valuable for years to come. :yesnod:

GREAT JOB SPIKY! :cool: :cool: :cool:

I've been pretty sick lately but I've got some audio projects involving my GXP and exhaust sampling to get back to soon hopefully. Going to try to do some quality recordings of the SOLO Street/Race and then some of it in 2 different configurations plus a stock car and maybe the SOLO Race too.

Those familiar with this exhaust system I have a few questions:
1) how similar (in sound) is the 2.4 GMPP exhaust to this version?
2) is this kit compatible with the 2.4L?
3) any performance gains?
