sound level for FI CBE

Rangerz · 11-13-2013, 06:22 PM

Yes the exhaust won't have much affect on being able to talk at cruising speeds. Once you get on it I think both you and your passenger will be listening to a very intoxicating exhaust note. It really does make these cars sound great.

I will says over the hundreds of video I have watched while I have been waiting really doesn't do the FI system justice. The crisp deep throaty sound it much deeper and stronger in person. Not harsh or deafening sounds really really good. Later this week I will see if I can isolate the road noise and delete it from the audio.

Thanks Rangerz for the video. I will have the same set up as soon as 850 arrives. Hopefully in the next few weeks.
And yes that sounds awesome.

I originally ordered the 18s but bought the 12s off another member just to see what the difference was. It seemed pretty minimal to be honest, it gives the idle a little more growl but i think the main difference is with the AC on. The 12s can get pretty loud. People are really aggressive when i have the AC on because it seems like im reving it out but im not

Guess that goes for any loud exhaust hah!

I really enjoy the 12s though, it brung up the volume enough for me to where its not completely ridiculous. I can still drive it keeping the volume down but whenever i want to make some noise it isn't hard

I can try to get a video in cabin with windows down and up maybe.

Does AC makes a difference on the exhaust tone? That's something new I heard. but video would be nice

I've done a lot of searching on the forum but I didn't see much information comparing the volume of each FI exhaust. Perhaps this can be an informative post for everyone later on.
I think from all the videos I watched 18'' is too quiet for me. If 12'' and 18'' make not much difference. I will just for the non-res

Not really the tone of the exhaust, the volume. Like Chuck said, higher rpm and more load if i am correct?
