I can make videos, my car is the one pictured, there is NO drone on this exhaust, it is a deeper tone than most exhausts and its not annoying at all. I think it is perfect, inside sounds good, you can still hear the deep sound.... but if you are looking for an insanely loud exhaust this won't be it. After about 2K miles or so exhaust sounded a tad louder which I liked.

I think this exhaust with test pipes will prob sound DAMN Good! I'm debating on test pipe or hfc....

Based on the decibel levels on Ark's website the DT-S is slightly louder than the GRiP at ~3000 rpm, right? Regardless, I'm not looking for crazy, all-the-time loud. To echo someone else on this forum, part of the reason we all get exhausts is so we can hear them. I don't want to shell out money solely for passer-by's enjoyment . . . I'd like to enjoy how the thing sounds, too.

I figure if I want it a skoche louder I can either throw on test pipes or hfc (as you eluded to) or take the resonators off like the Nismo in the video on page 2 apparently did . . . prolly not the latter.

From what it sounds like, though, it's still noticeably louder than the stock exhaust, correct?

Thanks for your input, man. What test pipes or hfc are you looking at?

Sounds good. Thanks, I really appreciate it.

Hell, if Fast Intentions is any indication, the more videos of the exhaust there are, the more comfortable people seem to be buying the exhaust. Whether its due to creating hype, increasing consumer information, or something else, videos = more sales on these boards.

Just an observation.

+1 with that. best thing to do with exhaust systems is to show the best representation of the exhaust before the big purchase
