Believe me I was half kidding
chill out man, sound is subjective I agree 100%, I believe I established that in this thread already.

Yeah, still not to impressed with the sound of this exhaust...While some people will like it, I rather stick with something that makes the stock exhaust sound, just a little louder and meaner..That's what sets this car apart from all the other imports you hear out on the road these days..I was just a little disappointed because I was thinking the HKS would make the stock tone, just a little deeper and meaner...I still think it's sounds a little to high pitch for my taste.

I will never argue with anyone's perception of sound....but I havent heard anyone complain about the sounds of the HKS, and we have installed/tuned/sold about 30 of them.

heard a locals - so a single unit. heard it on a free rev and under load. Maybe crap is a bit much, but definitely not worth paying the $ for

Hey Sharif, why don't you recommend the Stillen TD??? It's sounds pretty good and throaty and supposedly gives great gains...It's between the Stillen and the Borla for me

not to dog anyone's exhaust, but i've always thought that borla wasn't a good brand since way back when, like just a little better than Pacesetter... i think it got popular when it was mentioned in a certain movie.
