    I had that setup. It's ok stock, but it won't work if you get in the 250 HP range. We could talk about it, but I wouldn't be able to hear you; I'm still recovering from when I tried it.

    If your car is modified, and you're going to a straight exhaust, find a good audiologist, you're going to need it. If you're stock, it's more reasonable, but you're still going to make the neighborhood's dogs unhappy.

    The exhaust is sold

    oh and I didn't go full straight exhaust. I did a group 4 kind of set up, 2.5 inch piping with a baffle pack and glass pack running straight back under the battery box. Its loud but not obnoxious....

    Im sure my neighbors appreciated me when I left to go to the exhaust shop though... megan header with a test pipe... thats all I had, and it was stupid loud.

    If you thought the G4 was loud mine must insane. I only run it for the Spring and the Dragon and a few weeks after. Then I put my Milltek back on.

    So Dave, are you saying it is a good thing I'll have my electronic headphones at MOTD (I'll be using them on Saturday for "Shotguns on the Dragon")....sounds like I may need them when I take that passenger ride in your mini to check out your suspension set up!

    Yup my neighbors just love me during the Dragon / Summer months. :devil:

    They'll get over it because I shovel and salt all our driveways in the Winter and after this last Winter they owe me big time. :Thumbsup:

    Well luckily I don't see myself hitting 250hp anytime soon.
