Default How loud is Too Loud?

I know there's going to be different opinions from everyone but, I'm going to ask anyways.

My current setup is dual popchargers, AAM Y pipe, and AAM 3" single exit exhaust. I'm thinking about going with AAM test pipes and the AAM reflash soon as they have the software avalible.

here's what it sounds like now, I love the way my car sounds currently. I could stand for it to be a little louder, however, I don't want alot of vibrations and rasp sound. does anyone have the setup or any input about it? Too loud? Too much vibration? Too much rasp?

The tunnel flyby sounds really good. As long as you can stand the volume and it's a good quality, then make it louder haha.

You have the only color I like better than PPW haha

Do resonated test pipes if you want to keep the good sound. AAM 3" single with tp's = raspy.

I've heard it before, and I think it sounds awesome.
Test pipes will make it sound too raspy, but what you have now it awesome!
