Vosko, you should film a video of someone talking next to your car idling or revving. That way it is a whole lot easier to tell how loud it is. Nice burnout btw.
i guess you just gotta hear it in person. i'm used to it but its very loud. i need to order a silencer soon LOL

Well it seems to echo but I thought that was just the location. I don't think one can get a good feel for how loud it is from the vid. Very Nice burnout.



Nice collection of vids. I love the 20B hauling *** down the track... even though the track appears to downhill. That ride sounds sweet.
that was the location causing the echo. my car is actually a little louder now. that run was at 7psi boost. in high gears i'm getting 15psi now



that KSP Engineering drag car is INSANE. i can't wait to drive my FD

I just drove mine around the block Saturday night with just the downpipe on and it is LOUD. God is it LOUD.

I've heard open header drag cars that were quieter.
i drove my OLD 87 TII WITH NO EXHAUST not even the downpipe, all it had was the exhaust manifold. dear god it rattled the ground! the car was fast hell and blowing 5 foot flames under the car was amusing. mufflers on rotaries = good

well, i drove my car today to work for the first time inabout 2 weeks. And yeah it is loud, sorry must have gotten used to driving my trailblazer. I have 3" downpipe -> 3" Glass Pack -> 3" Apex Exhaust (Tip is about 5 1/2") Just play your radio loud and u wont even hear ur exhaust. Thats what I did this morning.

No it's already installed, well actually un-installed, I have heard it, just not under load as the clutch was bad on the new AE. It's 3 inch or rather 20mmm TurboII exhaust with racing beat mufflers, pretty sure from looking at the pics that the drop down is RB and the Y-pipe is RB, but the section which contains the soon to be removed cat is a custom little jobber.

Are you going to get the 3" presilencer?

that was my eventual plan, right now I am going to toss it back on as I am short on cash until I get the 84 sold. I had the RB downpipe with presilencer on my vert and it was still one loud *** fugger.

You're probably better off making a midpipe. 2 3" flanges and some 3" piping will do the job. The presilncer is pretty expensive.
