GETTING fi CAT BACK & HFC'S HOW LOUD IS IT?

Finally, getting my new exhaust & hfc's.

Can anyone tell me how loud is it?

I have heard sound clips, A friend of mine who has this set up says it is quiet.

Can anyone let me know, Cause i spent quite a few bucks.

I know it is a good quality system, just don't know how it sounds.

(one of the sound clips on youtube, has music playing in the backround)

I have heard the other post with solopres. but he has test pipes not hfc's.

I did see if anyone had any complaints before I bought & I know Fi makes good stuff, Like I said just wondering how loud is it?

Want it loud enough so I know what i spent my $$$ on, but not so loud as to attract The Pigly Wigglies.

Mind you that Fast Intention makes their exhaust system with Sebring Mufflers which tones down the exhaust note a lot.

I think it sounds pretty damn good with the combination with HFC.

Thanks Big Pei,

Everyone I spoke to said it is mad quiet.

they did mention your car in paticular.

That's why I didn't understand when everyone is telling me how quiet it is.
