not my first time, been to the tracks several times but don't go on a consistent basis that's why I went in the novice group.

The car is so loud i cant hear much from the instructor. we ended up using sign language, lol.

my boy already installed his on his DE rev up, paired to an Invidia Gemini exhaust, sounds freakin amazing. He also installed the NWP Throttle body, so we will see what kinda gains he got when we tune on Saturday

Heres a vid

In for dyno results! Would you mind asking him how loud it is after the headers, and if it drones at certain rpms?

He went from stock exhaust manifold paired with ART pipes to long tubes. Its a good bit louder than his previous set up at WOT, cant really explain the noise but its very racecar like lol very brutal.
As for drone he hasn't complained and I see him on a daily basis so im gonna say there is none lol.
He just had to add a bit of fuel until we get tuned because his A/F leaned out a full point after install.

What's up guys. I'm more of a lingerer on here than a poster. that's me in the videos.
There is definitely a butt dyno difference. After my amateur tuning hour was over and I wasn't as worried about beating on it, it really surprised me. The posted video was shifting at about 5k and not a whole hearted wot.
Sound is awesome. the only way I can think to describe it is loud and smooth. the vq sound really comes through strong at light throttle, at wide open it always sounds like you are 1000rpm higher than what you really are. no noise issues. It's surprisingly quiet at cruise and idle.

After we get redlines on and get tuned again we should have some good videos of what these sound like being hammered on.

This being my daily driver, sound was my main concern. Assuming you have experienced no drone?

Cruise is really similar to before. You can hear a difference, Yes. but nothing that resonates, or has that undertone that makes your ears feel like the air pressure is changing... if that makes any sense. I have been in z's with test pipes, and high flow cats running a titanium single. Those had the type of drone I'm talking about. my exhaust is a true dual, one resonator and one muffler per side, and an x pipe.
