The mic on the camera I used it a little weird. Not only that, I think that it was at the wrong angle.. I'll try another one in a few min...

i like it more than just the comptechs. give it a more aggressive growl. (versus the moo)

i'm really curious as to what that rattley sound at the top is though.

I have been poking around for a while now and the best part is that its only when the car is stationary. When I drive it, that rattle is gone....

Your prob right, also the camera doesn't quite capture the actual sound of the exhaust. I went back and listened to a clip of mine neutral reving and decided it sounds pretty close:

Magnaflow 14832 w/ no resonator. Was before headers and CAI.

yOu guys are cry babies. no matter if its in neutral or whatever the excuse is about the camera, the sound is not going to change so much that it doesnt resemble the note anymore. you still get a pretty good idea of how it sounds

True, True. Well here. For those of you who have Comptech cans, just imagine it a lot louder...

i really like the look and sound (w/resonator) of the 14832s but, i would like to just do a custom axleback setup.

I don't get it.... Why would you want your luxury sports car to sound like a Mexican-owned 1988 Honda Civic?

im with this guy. all you ppl removing the resonators, and running these big pipes are making the car loose its smooth purr. if you arent someone like cleanCL i dont see the benifit of loosing the nice sound to gain like 2 whp.

I'm with PMGCamaro on that, however ask the people who where at the Va Beach meet who heard my exhaust. They all seemed to like it in person. This time the cam does suck as its not allowing you to hear the full sound of it. I think that I'm going to the RonJon meet so more of you can hear it then and then judge...

jeremy is right though, the car really needs to be under load to get the correct sound out of the exhaust.
