Fully built twin turbo with open dumps and nitrous here. All hidden, even my stereo. No kit and some plain jane 5zigen FNs. I like the sound of a racecar just as much as the next guy, but im not an attention whore, so I keep it discrete and drive slow. If I nail it...you'll know whats up...otherwise, you would never notice me. Thats the way I like it.

You've got open dumps and you're able to "keep it discreet"? Sound clips or it didn't happen!

If you drive normal then you can most definitely keep the noise down. Even going easy it's not quiet but it's not obnoxious.

I like loud but that mustang sounds like a vacuum cleaner to me.

I have heard Old School's car and if he wants he can keep it quiet, but whenever I am around it always seems to be so loud for some reason.
