Sound Clip - RV6 Pre-cats Deletes, J-Pipe and Test Pipe
As promised (like a year ago), a few sound clips with Richie's entire setup. Exhaust cat-backs belong to Comptech. Apologies for the dirty car, and the poor quality; I felt so stupid doing this in an empty parking lot with people driving by... but I did it as quickly as I could. Still a tad bit raspy, especially when revving, but overall, it sounds pretty aggressive. I'm satisfied

Whatcha think? Too much? Does it make me sound...ricer ??! Hope not...

just make sure you are on the throttle when you pass the camera... most people think just flying buy off the throttle is a flyby... roll up at 20mph and then gun it, you'll pass the cam at vtec wide open

better yet...in 3rd gear at about 5000 rpm, pin it from about 150-200 feet before the camera, so when ya fly by, youll be in between 6-7 k rpm

sounds good, tho a camera will never show us what it really sounds like. haha

i always feel like mine sounds so much quieter than everyone elses, but apparently none of my friends and apparently some of the cars i drive by dont seem to think so.

(biggest probem...no one else drives my car...so i NEVER know what ppl hear outside.. )

top of 3rd gear sounds the best! we experimented with my TL and that seems to be the sweet spot

2nd gear would give you a rush through the rpm, while 4th would climb too slow...3rd is best of both worlds!
