Rolling Down All 4 windows--to Hear the 3.2TL ROAR!
I find myself rolling the windows down (all 4),
and muting the XM so I can Hear the Engine ROAR!
Anyone else out there experiencing/finding themselves doing this?
She sounds sweet, when that VTEC kicks in...

Yeah, I do the same. I really hope someone comes out with a tasteful exhaust that opens the car up at higher RPM's but still sounds 'right' during normal cruising. AEM, Computech, are you listening?

:smokin: Yeah man, I feel you on that...
It's getting warmer here and as soon as it stops raining (today)
I'll turn off the radio, and open the roof,
while blasting down some two lane in farm/suburbia land
Just me the Red Pearl TL and the stars.....
Clutch .. Click..Throttle
Instant RPM's turning into an unrelenting VTECH flex
and that unmistakble growl from the the 3.2...
Instant smile on my face and knowing that I bought the right car for me.
Like riding a Roller Coaster at night in the dark if you get right...
beware of deer though...

Comptech's exhaust for the 04 TL will begin to ship next week.
Also, Mugen has a Sport Exhaust in the works

One of the things I love about it, is that the rear windows do roll down all the way. But back to Nathan's topic...I do love hearing the engine roar.
It's funny because I only noticed this a couple of days back, I had my windows down and I started the car and slightly revved it. It sounded so good, because it had character but still classy. I never noticed the engine's "true" sound with the windows up...I guess that says a lot about the great sound-deadening...

Yah, I do this sometimes. But I don't like the moment when my car comes to the stop. When RPM is going down to idle, you will hear the weird sound, like something is drawn back to the exhaust. Sorry, I don't know how to describe it.
