increase to 8/10 or so. But does give it a cleaner tone. I'm just waiting till the end of November to come and ill order my set.

Short tails are like a 6 in my opinion.. with mid pipe is like an 8.

Short tails + test pipes is a 9/10

All of this and maybe a little more. I had that set up and I didn't keep more than a few months as it was way too loud!

So i took a chance with this set up. Along with the AAM CAI.
As far as the exhaust, way toooooo loud. A lot different than watching youtube videos for sound clips. Not what i was expecting. Maybe giving it a few more miles on it will chime down the loudness to make it smoother, first few miles were intense.

I'm actually considering this setup and dropping my FI exhaust.

With the ART pipes, it's gonna be loud

I'm running the AAM short-tails with art test pipes and I LOVE the sound. I previously had only the AAM short-tails and, to me, the loudness on cruise is barely any louder with the art pipes added. But when I step on it....yes it can get loud lol but I love the sound. To each his own I guess.

Can you upload a video for us to hear your setup?

I am about to pull the trigger on the art pipes or go another route. The owner has the only video I have seen on youtube of the art pipes with short tails.

Id like to hear some more!

Startup - Some in driving - and Flyby if you could!

Everything!
1) ColdStart
2) Warmstart
3) In car startup
4) Cruising and then 4/5th gear accel
5) WOT run
6) Flyby
7) Rear Exhaust Rev

Those 7 steps makes for a great exhaust video! lol
