Fedcapper - I've heard VT's exhaust and it sounds AWESOME! You're going to end up doing it.

Fedcaper,
How many resonators did you have removed? I think you have the x-pipe too right? Looking foreward to hearing it in person.
jordan23junkee,
I haven't forgotten about the RDSport sound clip you've requested. Still working on it.

No worries VT, I may check out Feds since hes local or ill test my patience for this sat.

Just to let you know, my RDSport exhaust will sound a little different from everybody else's. There is a reason why other than deleting the three resonators. And, you can only hear it at the Meet this Saturday. I can't record a clip b/c g/f took off with my new camera back to LA last night.

Yea, I hear the supercharger makes it sound slightly softer correct?

Sorry to go off-topic but I need to nip this rumor in the bud. I don't have a supercharger. VF Engineering still hasn't released their S/C yet. I was told 2nd quarter of '07 but as you can see it's 3rd quarter already and still no word.

Hey Carlton,
I'm not sure if you got to really hear my exhaust yesterday, but how does VT's exhaust compare to mine?
(i'm considering changing mine to something louder)

Rich - It's in a whole different league. Keep in mind he has the quad exhaust too, but overall, it definitely sounds deeper and has a nice "rumble" to it. You should def go quads on your car Rich. It will look awesome!

B/T/W - Nice pix from the meet yesterday. I liked how you worked the camera for the rear and side mirrors.
