how loud is...well loud?

I'm thinking of getting the Bushur dual exhaust, but I've read of people saying the test pipe with the bullet muffler is loudd. How loud is loud?

Ive watch the exhaust with the quiet muffler and it seems too 'stock' I dunno if it was with a test pipe or not either. i want to be able to talk to my passegners with out YELLING at them.

Loud is when your on the freeway and you have to turn the radio up all the way, and you still cant hear it.

loud is when you spend 15k on a system thats loud enough to drown out the exhaust.

loud is also when at an idle you have to shut it off to talk to people.

The Buschur dual is "livable." You can have a conversation in the car with the windows up and the idle isn't too loud unless you're standing behind the car, when you might have to raise your voice a little. There isn't much drone, only at about 60mph exactly, so if you stay just above or just below 60 you should be alright. Adding a test pipe will of course amplify the volume a whole lot though.

Loud is removing the muffler on your Buschur dual exhaust and replacing it with a smaller resonator. You can't hear the person next to you when accelerating unless you're yelling, and conversing behind the car while idling is difficult. This is with a high flow cat instead of a test pipe though -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm86-05bZ1E

I dont mind going up hill and the loudness that is greated. As long as passenger can hear me, i'm find with that. Cops around these parts don't care about loudness, so I'm good there.
