Lovin' the more prominent supercharger whine! It wasn't like that exactly prior to the muffler and other performance stuff.

Hey Drex, as i replay and watch the video again. The increased sound of the supercharger is beginning to grow onto me. Not sure what you want out of it, whether it's deeper sound from the muffler or higher pitch from the supercharger... but i'm loving it.

Nah. I was being sarcastic about the supercharger whine. I LOVE it! The superdcharger whine is way more prominent than before and the exhaust note is deep and rumbles on acceleration (no high pitch noise from the exhaust note, like others I've heard installed on the m271).

daaaaamn! I only heard it from behind the car (with flip revving it) and inside the car (with flip revving it). I didn't even get a chance to hear the s/c. niiiiiice! I love how loud the s/c is now!
I say at the end of the month we go to the tunnel on mulholland drive to do some exhaust sound clip recordings...

Although, last time I went blaring through that tunnel, it was not a fun experience.

Lol, I think I heard about this experience. Wonder what your car will sound like compared to one that doesn't have headers. Guess we'll see!

Neither am I, but that doesn't mean we can't have a small meet again. I saw pics that Enrique took at the top of the Sherman Oaks Galleria parking lot and that looks like it may be another good "photoshoot" spot. It's a 'bit of a drive for a lot of people, but super close to my pad

Drex: the car looks awesome, but kinda strange with the cutout not matching the shape of the tip. You and Jose should take a Dremel to that b*tch and clean up the cutout.

Ideally, have them test fit and do the cutting before painting... but I don't have to tell you that. Hell, I was surprised to see that the exhaust wasn't zip-tied on there!
