Yeah, it sounds alot deeper than it does on video. For some reason it sounds a little raspy on camera.
Best part of the videos to hear what it accurately sounds like is on the second video at the end. The part where I pass the camera by a couple feet and then reverse, THAT'S what it sounds like in person. (2:44-3:19)

Sounds good. I bet it's deeper and not "as loud" at times due to the directional mic in camcorders. Probably a little louder than my 8 with it's tbe (nur spec r). You can never judge what people consider "loud", because for example when I bought the Nur Spec R exhaust people said it's too loud. In reality, it's probably the quietest car I've ever owned lol.

Very nice though. Something I'll probably consider when my X comes in.

I need to try that out with my ETS v1 with 3.5 merge pipe (bad a$$) and 100 cell UR metal cat. I thought yours didn't sound nearly as impressive on the low freq range as what I run, mine vibrates my buttt off, literally confusing me for my phone vibrating at least 4 times a day. But microphones aren't known for low freq range, I'd like to know how mine sounds electronically captured.

they won't
unless they have aftermarket alarms in their cars, just starting your car all the alarms will start. you will love it after a while. lol
other goods, when you want that ******* that drives so near behind you, to back off. drive iyour carin 3rd gearr, rev high and change to 2nd gear, you will hear some pops pops comming from your exhaust, sometimes is fire flames, they freakout 90% of the time and give you like half mile of space
ams straight pipe setup rocks
remember that now that you are loosing your oem heatshield around the cathalitic conv. is a good idea to wrap at less your test pipe and part of the downpipe, works for me

It's very hard to accurately record the sound on camera. The exhaust sounds raspy thru most of the videos I posted. Best example of what it actually sounds like is the very end of the 2nd video when I'm reversing back towards the camera.

Thanks. I was planning on mounting the camera to the driver-side window and recording the speedo before & after the exhaust so that I could split screen it for comparison on video. As much as I would've like to, I was just eager to get it on already and didn't have time.

Sorry, missed your question. Better late than never...

I don't know. I guess it would depend on the state and how strict they are. I also don't know whether or not they take Sound DBs into consideration when doing their tests. Again, probably varies by state.
