New Mods?? Show it off >>HERE<<
I am like, fairly positive the first gens are just louder as a whole then the 2nd gens... I put just a muffler on my 05 and it was loud. I put just a muffler on my 08 and its like, no louder... I put a catback on my 05, and its louder. I put a catback on the 08 and it is as loud as the 05 was with just a muffler.
Andrew puts a y pipe back on his car with some HFCs and its rattling houses!! What gives!

LMAO...Janik, you're pulling this out of no where right here my friend.
2nd Gens, a LOT of the exhausts have resonator choices, even my HFCs I paid to have resonators put on them. This is to have a more refined tune/sound.
Peng said it perfectly, it has noooothing to do w/ the generation, but the R&D put into the exhausts and what you prefer. Tevi has had an axelback up until now he's getting his HKS, and that b*tch was prrrrrrrrrrrretty loud, and that's not even with HFCs.
If you want something super loud and a lot of drone, then go for it. How LOUD your exhaust is definitely should not be how its described rather then how mean and throaty, non droney & raspy it is.
Mike def had the loudest exhaust on his car...but he'll be the first to admit, it def didn't make it the best sounding.....and quite frankly it was he//a annoying at times!!

I loved the way my 05 sounded, and that was just a bunch of mismatched OEM parts and an axleback..

Janik-
Your exhaust is audible. I can hear you leave when i'm inside the house. I'll tell you what. We will take a video of the invidia and see what it sounds like on the computer. I bet you it is as loud or almost as loud as the set up you had on your 05

I will be frankly honest, I am completely in love with the sound of my car inside and out. It's the perfect sound IMO of a quiet and refined sound when your driving down the highway, yet when I get on it you can easily hear it from a block or two away. I absolutely love that it's quiet when I want it to be and roars when I expect it to. Even Shannan was commenting how it sounded, and I thought it was pretty hawt that she was wanting me to gun it cuz it gave her a rush when I was accelerating onto an on ramp....up to 4k. I was givin her **** cuz I was in 3rd gear. I was telling her to wait until summer time when I have traction and I can redline the first 3 gears....then we will see how its supposed to be

I bought them new I believe for 550ish. I loved the sound of them on my first gen and with the stillen exhaust/invidia they sounded the best. I still need to get a video clip up but of course that won't happen for quite awhile. Did you take it for a drive or get to hear it when I drove it up last time for Sushi?
