are you talking about the smoother tone caused by the X pipe? OEM resonator has an H pipe that gives us the burble and truck like tone.

So since having this car... All I wanted was the slow down gurgle bumble brapp brapp... But the oem barely... And I mean barely did it till I got this setup

This car in M mode especially and S modes does it perfect... Loud and gross sounding lol

But the damn things quiet... Sometimes at thr lights when revving it... Its almost embarrassing as opposed to when it's how it should be and people are cheering or jaws dropping

She was healthy above... Then slowly.. Surely it's worsened

Like here in C mode

Watch "Res cat cut but... Somethings up" on YouTube

Watch "Res cat cut xpipe" on YouTube
All three videos sound like how it should be...
Correct me if i am missing something, but in C mode, it is a bit slow in revving sometimes. Seems normal to me.

I agree... About it sounding normal but and c mode..

What I find is and i'm sure you'll agree... The sound on our phones and in person is two different worlds...

But I'm telling ya fellas.. This thing sounds like a f$-kin KIA when ya flat the gas at lights frim time to time.. In S plus manual C mode whatever...

It's the most irritating thing. Actually no.. My ex was...

This is still tolerable but unreliable...

I'm gonna put the stinkin per back on if the welds check. Ok and the scans pull nothin

All the best gents

Its not about slow revving, its about the tone. ITs like something that is not letting the car to rev properly. Damn, its really hard to explain. The worst part that its doing it unpredictably. You can beat the SH*t out of the car and in some time notice that the exhaust has changed and its not that loud anymore. Especially for me, when its tuned - I clearly hear that the downshifts are quieter than in a Corolla next to me... Under the WOT sound is also not that great.
Than it goes back to normal.
