Hollywood, talk to me ;-)

resonator replaced by straightpipe (mistake)


Why was it a mistake? To loud?

True it is louder at all speeds. It definitely sounds more powerful at higher rpm, but I say it is a mistake because I don't think our car was made to sound the way Jackie does right now. From 1 to 3 grand, it sounds raspy and a little sick. Everything beyond that, I love. I love to put it in SS mode when coming up to a red light and shift it down into 2nd (sounds like it's got some more balls).

Rode in Ult's silver baby the other week and realized how much I missed the original exhaust.

For those of you who bought your CL and want to make it sound like an integra, this is the most inexpensive option ($40) to add custom sound.

How about this, tell me how to make a .wav file and I will record it.

Do you have a laptop? If so that will make it real easy because you can use it as your recording device and not have to transfer it over to wav format.

Nope, no laptop here, but I'll figure something out.

Any more questions about the resonator?
