    Or I just enjoy the music lol. Nice little feature the auto level. Works surprisingly well regardless of exhaust.

    Should see if you can do an R32 style exhaust with the flapper. It was so nice to go from quiet note to insane!

    Well guess I shouldn't say it was the transmission is it was just the engine movement causing the slop.

    Small resonator welded inline to reduce it?

    What muffler did you change out to? I love the sound don't get me wrong! And I drive it accordingly to minimize time spent in the droan zone.

    My droan is from 1800-2200rpm roughly.

    I liked the idea until i saw the price tag at triple the cost of the Magnaflow. But guess that is part of the price same as Danny mentioned.

You see the pattern, you can reduce the drone, well not exactly reduce but to isolate the drone from the cabin through sound deadening. Magnaflow catback is by far still the best sounding 2.8 24v VR exhaust IMO with the windows down lol
    Interesting how it changed. I do love the sound of it.

    Hmm same with how Rob changed out the muffler, probably a similar idea I guess.
