LOL, to many nightclubs and concerts as younger guy, could explain why it's no so made for me hehehe. Yes the RTP's are still Extremely loud and louder than i first thought. Although it is growing on me more and more that i drive it.

I had an off-road X-pipe and Magnaflow cat-back (straight-through mufflers, similar to the FI) and I think volume wise they are comparable. The FI CBE is just loud and deep at lower RPMs... I'm sure my Mustang was louder at WOT.

Been trying to get some decent video but my camera is not cooperating with sound. Will see if I can get anything up tonight.

So heres a the Cold Start Up. I did this yesterday morning around 0830 and dont forget this just from a point and shoot camera. It still does give a good idea of the sound to be expected. You do need to turn up the Volume though

More coming soon.

Here are the other little Videos i have done.

This first one starts in an underground carpark, then onto a normal road with cruise set @60km in 5th gear.

This one is going onto the highway with hard accelaeration in 2nd-3rd gear. Then i set crusie @100km in 6th gear.

Lastly just a littte blast into a corner with 2nd-3rd gear.

Just uploading a few Videos now of Cold Start, On Ramp to Highway, Underground Car Park with some 60km driving etc.. Once they are uploaded will add them.

MrBMW your videos make me ready to go back outside and drive my car, lol. Sorry I haven't had a change to make any videos yet... busy weekend and just enjoying driving the car non stop.

I did go back to the OEM cats today... BTW... anyone who has done HFC or testpipes... the first time we did this we did the whole remove the intakes, long extensions, etc. Now that we're using SS hardware and broken them off, I was able to put the OEM ones back on completely from underneath the car. Me and a friend swapped the cats on our backs with the car on jackstands in about an hour or so, no crazy extensions and certainly not having to worry about the steering shaft (I would imagine this applies to headers only?)

Anyhow, impressions now that the car is back on OEM cats... still loud, still REAL deep, but a little more mellow and not nearly as agressive sounding. A little less drone I suppose... but I kind of miss that "raw" and "mean" sound the HFCs provided me. But still very happy on OEM cats. This exhaust just sounds so beautiful. In one weekend I've received more compliments than ever, and had neighbors flag me down to check it out or give a thumbs up. Everyone loves the sound this system provides.

crbn_fbr is local to me as well, I'm planning on meeting up with him and hopefully get a video to compare the 12" vs 18" resonators... I'm curious to hear the difference in person.

m4a1mustang · 09-28-2009, 12:48 PM

Nah... don't want it any louder!

FuszNissan · 09-28-2009, 12:53 PM

I wouldn't. Well, berks atleast. I get a bad hiss. It's annoying.

kdo2milger · 09-28-2009, 12:56 PM

from where on the hfc's is the hiss coming from? or is it just a design side effect...

I don't know if it is the honey comb that is causing it when the back pressure is released, but when you rev it or let off the gas, your car hisses at you...lol That is the best way to put it.
