Hey guys, I've made a video of what it sounds like on the interior. The video came out ok, but it really doesn't do the whole sound of the car justice (especially on the freeway) but hopefully you guys get the general idea.

That's not bad inside, my flowmaster AT had really bad drone. Maybe it was my set up and I should reconsider with the new set up I'm running.

I also had to check your location when I saw green in the trees and grass! Here in Michigan we are already pretty much brown with no leaves on the trees!

That sounds pretty damned good. Very even, no popping or farting, as they say. I'm guessing you have a stick since I could hear you shifting. I wonder if the sound would be more or less with an auto?

lol yeah Jim a lot of the trees stay green here but Corona, CA is really a desert surrounded by rocky hills so those trees probably don't belong here haha. That's interesting you'd reconsider the flowmasters again, are there issues with the GT500 takeoffs?
Chronos, that's a good question on the auto transmission. I can't think of why it would change things too much, but there's always something, y'know?

I'm glad you guys like it on the interior too

I'm not familiar with Corona, I have clients in Costa Mesa, Corona del Mar, and all the way up to Santa Barbara that I go out to see a couple of times a year.

Nothing wrong with the GT500 take offs - it's just that the AT's always had a little tougher sound.

Yeah, Corona's a little different. Almost barren compared to those places, just a suburban desert kind of place

Thanks for sharing about the GT500 take offs, you're the only person I can think of with that set-up.
