THIS!!!!!

Yeah I feel like I did plenty of research on this site before ordering them and no where did I read a line like yours above. It really is just ******* horrible. Everyone keeps using the word RASP which in my opinion is not the right word for that awful sound. Had someone mentioned that anywhere I would of stayed waaaaaaay clear of them and ordered HFCs instead. Atleast I can be a bit optimistic with the ARTS, should be here in 2 days

It's like rapid fire metallic farts or something; a robot with the shits PBTHTHTHHHHHBBRRRRHHHHHHBBBBBBHHHH

Making my way down narrow side streets punctuated by speed tables was murder because I'm always slowing down and the location created an echo effect. I used to do everything in my power to avoid that RPM range... which is impossible.

I've had it with the OEM and the Nismo (Y-piped) exhaust too. Untested, at least by me, with other CBE's.

It could be that the FI has something different going on to minimize it, tho'. Does the FI have a different Y-pipe or maybe an H- or X-pipe?

Funniest **** ever right here! You pretty much summed my feelings exactly haha. Driving in an out of my apartment complex echoes off all the garages and drives me nuts.

I just installed my Berk TP's and Borla dual exhaust which uses an H-pipe to replace the factory Y-pipe and am hearing the same ridiculous noise
