Is yours otherwise stock with respect to intake and cats? What size resonators do you have? Last question: do you have any exterior clips of a drive by where your not pushing 5k rpm?

I have to ask: why is it that when everyone posts clips of a drive by or pull away they have to "launch" and scream by at 5k+ rpm? While that's nice to hear from time to time..it gets old..quick. I'm more interested in hearing an exhaust under normal driving conditions.

Ok, I'll get off my soapbox now.

Yup, pretty much stock otherwise.

I have 18" resonators...I got to drive behind my car which people rarely get to do, car sounded much quieter than I anticipated.

I am maybe doing a sound clip this weekend, I'll be sure to hit you up. I will say it sounds nice and tame with 18" resonators, amplifies the VQ and downshifting is where I feel the quality really shines

Oh please please please! I will hit you up with a rep for it if you do! Pass by and take off with normal driving!

If you feel up to it, 3k rpm pass by in third would be good. That's still better than the 6k pass bys that every one else deems necessary to record.

A guy complimented me on my 370 "zed". I said "Thanks, are you from Canada?" since I detected no accent.

His answer : "Top Gear". Can't complain he isn't speaking English.

Hey guys. I had a change of heart at the last minute and decided to get the KW coilovers instead. The car will be finished tomorrow evening. Next stop is a full JL system install over the weekend. Once everything is done I promise to take pics of the drop and audio system.
