VIDEOS of my Setup (Borla, R/T, JWT)
Here are a few vids that I have taken showing some of my new mods.
First video:
My car revving at idle and also a few clips from driving:
(Broadband)
http://www.197358246.com/~havoc/G35CupdateLarge.wmv (6mb)
(56k)
http://www.197358246.com/~havoc/G35CupdateSmall.wmv (3mb)
Second Vid:
My car on the dyno Machine. 3 pulls, 53.27rwhp on a hot day
(Broadband)
http://www.197358246.com/~havoc/DynoLarge.wmv (13mb)
(56k)
http://www.197358246.com/~havoc/DynoSmall.wmv (5mb)
As you can tell, I have absolutely no raspyness with the R/T cats. I believe it only happens on certain exhausts, especially Stillen. So if you have Borla exhaust and you want to get cats, R/T's are the way to go!
Tell me what ya think!

Boo, whatever happened to quicktime? what was wrong with it? Bill Gates likes to make it so that people at work with macs cannot enjoy wasting time looking at peoples videos converted to windows-only video

i have almost the same setup (except k&n typhoon/kinetix plenum), and while i dont have any rasp when reving to higher rpms, there is a tad bit of rasp as the revs drop (after letting off the pedal) from about 3k-2k rpm. its evident also in your first video when you are reving. there is no noticeable rasp when reving up but its there as the rpms drop from 3k down to 2k. while this isnt a huge problem, it does sound kinda funky when downshifting.

Not to start an argument, but Quicktime is an Apple-created format, just like Windows Media is an MS-created format. (Although Apple was nice enough to make a Quicktime player for Windows. MS should be nice and make a Windows Media player for MacOS.) I might ask this question instead:
Why don't people make generic mpeg videos that are not Quicktime or Windows Media dependent? Both players (along with scores of others for all types of operating systems) can play standards-based mpeg files.

Yes I was wondering about that. It doesn't sound raspy in the traditional sense of a metalic clanking sound. Rather it sounds like a woosh of air. I thought it might be a leak. I don't know.

Meaning a 20MB mpeg will be only 10mb if it were in quicktime or wmv format (if not less than 10)
By the way, nice videos, i am looking at a similar setup in a month or so.... (when the weather gets a little warmer) CANT WAIT!!

There often can be a bit more to it. Quicktime and Windows Media formats are often just "wrappers" that go around a video that was compressed with some other type of compression codec. For example, you can have a Quicktime or Windows Media file that is actually compressed using an mpeg1 or mpeg2 codec... or any other codec. (There are bunches!) If you're going to use mpeg1 or mpeg2 codecs, though, there's not much reason to put them inside the Quicktime or WMV formats because there are plenty of players (including those two) which will play mpeg. As far as Quicktime, is there even a "Quicktime" codec? Most of the QT videos I see seem to use an mpeg codec or Sorensen Video. (another very popular codec)
On the topic of mpeg, there's no reason it has te be "crappy" if the creator of the video doesn't want it to be. When making the videos, you can determine what bitrate to use, which will determine the quality (and file size). Mpeg2 is my preference as it is the same codec used in DVDs and SVCDs and thus it is very standard.
All of this is sort of a moot point in this particular situation, though, because the above videos were compressed using Windows Media Video 9. This is actually a very nice codec, but like 'damoniusmonk' said, I don't know if Microsoft makes the WMV9 playback codec available to any player other than Windows Media Player. (I think...)
My original point was actually for 'damoniusmonk'. He said why not use Quicktime instead of WMV? I was just saying why not get rid of the "wrappers" altogether and just use mpeg1 or mpeg2. There are OSes (such as Linux) for which I don't believe there are Quicktime players *or* WMV players... but there *are* mpeg players. And you can't honestly say mpeg2 is a low quality codec unless you're saying DVDs are low quality.

Hey I'm all for mpeg, Macs love 'em and so do PCs
Bring on the mpegs!
Oh yeah, there is a wmv converter for mac, but it only runs on OSX, and my Avid (editing system) is on OS9 only, oh well

Ah, Avid, eh? (Now that's a funny sounding sentence.) Nice. Too bad the OS9 version won't work. Maybe try out that wmv player for MacOS that was mentioned above. (?)
