im LOVING it so far. when you are crusing steady and let off the gas it has a nice kinda loud burble little backfire and the tone is amazing, no rasp at all it is deff louder than i thought it was going to be but it is not a problem at all

cant give you a clear answer on that one.

I had a rv6 jpipe v2 before i installed the XLR8 jpipe. the rv6 jpipe made no difference in sound or minimal sound at most. this was on the stock exhaust.

when I had the xlr8 jpipe put in my engine definitely got louder but there was also an exhaust leak. if i had to compare the xlr8 jpipe to the rv6 jpipe v2 I would say yes it made my exhaust louder, but this is on the stock exhaust. also i am not sure if this was due to the exhaust leak I had experienced. it was fixed on the spot but the sound was still louder than the rv6 jpipe v2 on the stock exhaust. i then had the xlr8 exhaust put on about half a week later and that made my exhaust sound much much louder, in a good way

heres a clip from inside the car. i had the moonroof in tilt position so there will be a little bit of outside noise. the orange light is telling me my oil is at 15% life and needs to be changed. and i had the camera in my right hand the whole time

i tried not to go above 60MPH


edit: notice how quiet it gets when i let off the throttle
