thanks for the input,
after having it on for a week, I'm starting to like it more and more, so i'm happy.
at first, I thought to myself, omg i'm going to need to buy a set of silencers..
now, not so much.. love the sound especially when i pass my a tunnel.. sounds soo sweet!

tunnels are the best. every time i go through one, i always get the urge to just step on it a little more to get the sound going through the tunnel.

i am glad you like it. the drone does get annoying when you are trying to talk to other in the car.

Hks are the loudest for the 2nd gen IS and cold start being loud is normal from what everyone say.

just because its HKS is not rice, I think it sounds pretty sick. if you were to get headers it would probably be loud as crap tho

I'm sure there will be ones made, headers too, now that there is a 350AWD.

FYI, if you read my post, I said I know HKS is not rice, but it seems so to people who don't know that it is HKS. (Huge tip with loud noise typically = rice)
So no, I'm not on any drugs.
