Yours sound nothing like mine. Mine is a little louder and deeper...I think. Do you have the silencer in?

nope not on either, the first video is windows up and from inside the car, odviously, the second video is from the outside...

alls i know is mine sounds badass, and that video makes your sound raspy and ricey... but like i said its just the video... get a better camera redo your video.

p.s. silencer makes it sound like ****.

another thing could be diff is i have injen cai... dunno how much a difference that would make in overall sound *shrugs*

i have still sounds like **** by comparison to not having it in there... im making my call by comparison to not having it in there, maybe you should do the comparison and come to grips with it

sure with silencer it in sound okay... but it sounds better w/o it.

eh my honest opinion is without the silencer, it sounds the same at 2k vs 5k rpm

with the silencer i think u get more of a range of sound

My exhaust sounded like **** too when it was recorded on my camera.
Nothing at all like the real sound when you were standing next to it while it idles.

Here's what mine sounded like when I had the Injen CAI, Header, Dp, GMPP Touring

I gotta ask this again, Ive had my tsudo installed for about 8 mo. Now I can't remove the silencer. I removed the bolts and had a tool that hooked to the end of the silencer and I pulled my hardest and nothing, not even a budge. Could it be rusted in? What might be the best way to pull it, Im leaning on just taking it to a exhaust shop.

do a google search on tsudo silencer, there are a few ways to get it out, but now that its been that long you might be better off trying an exhaust shop

It's good stuff. Just be ready to fight with it when you're installing. Mine still sets too far back into my bumper, and it's causing some blackening issues, so I'm gonna have to get back under there soon and mess with the hangers and hopefully get some bigger bushings.

^^^not a bad price at all!! Its the tsudo n-1 catback right? I found it on ebay for 150+ shipping! So no major issues right? I would do it myself since its pretty much bolt on but don't have the space or time so I'm guessin ill go to my local meineke! Thanks for the info guys!!

its easy to do if you have a set of ramps back your car up on it and you will have plenty of space. could do the install on a driveway in about 20 mins lol.
