If you are listening on a set of laptop speakers you are not doing it justice. Grab a nice set of speakers and enjoy!

or better yet, if you dont have access to nice surround speakers with a subwoofer, plug in some headphones on your laptop. this even sounds good on my iphone. about to plug it up to the F and hear it through the mark levinson

Sick steering wheel and an intoxicating sound! Not sure how it'll fare with smog checks here in CA, but PPE headers are certainly on my list.

haha, they are too good not to post. ive seen like all youtube vids, every description says "camera cant capture sound, better in person"

this has to be some of the best sounding vids yet.

It's hard to pick up on a mic because it is not loud enough for it to really catch. The other problem is how loud do you guy listen to it for it to be comparable to what it really is. For the drone part when I am accelerating and hit the 2000-3000 rpm if people are not used to it they will stop talking because they can not hear themselves well. But once you are cruseing around it is not loud at all. You would have to listen pretty hard to hear it. I normally drive by myself so it being loud is perfect for me. Taking my girlfriend to dinner is always fun. As soon as the dress or shopping talk starts I just go into a mild acceleration loud exhaust for the win if you want to be quiet you can be but it's easier to be loud. A lot easier and a lot more fun

I don't mean to make this set up sound extremely loud. You can get a good tone from
My videos but I think I am going to have to find a recommended volume. Since we all have isfs I think I will use the isf sound system and find the correct volume level for a few different types of accelerations. I ll work on it.
