It was hard to do a direct comparison since the JVT setup that used OEM mufflers also had an aftermarket X Pipe. However I can say the difference between a setup with headers and without headers is a very noticeable and very awesome! Both setups had very minimal rasp.

In fact, the video makes it seem like all the systems have way more rasp than what it sounds like in person. I'm guessing the mic just picked up the high frequencies more than the low. During the high speed runs, I don't remember hearing much rasp at all, but in the videos almost every car as it gets further away from the camera sounds like a total rasp machine.
