Surprisingly clean and behaved, until you hit the gas. Its quite the monster all things considered.

Tires need upgrading now.

Awesome! How do you like the Kooks headers? I'm looking at getting the same only no cats.
Fitment was outstanding. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

WAY louder.

Cold start could be considered ridiculously loud, as far as your neighbors are concerned you might as well be doing a dyno pull in your garage. My exhaust setup would not be an option for those living in a townhouse.

Warm idle isnt too much louder, maybe 15% increase in volume with some added grit. Light throttle acceleration is maybe 25% louder. Moderate to Full throttle is twice as loud or more. Noise when cruising on the highway is increased... not real drastically but its sort of crossed a line of comfort where you might want to take a break after 2 hours in the car. If I keep cruise RPM just above 2000rpm its more comfortable. At 1900 or so its a little obnoxious if you arent cranking the stereo.

If you are sensitive to loud deep resonating noises, you will probably enjoy my car for about 90 min before you would want to exit and probably be done for the day LOL.

Nice job Charles! Following your lead very soon :)

Although I'm a little scared about the noise level. I'm gonna run through the green cats into Borla touring exhaust which has the mid muffler so I hope it won't be as drastic of s change as yours.

Very nice. Our car look very similar just different colors. Now I need to ditch this procharger and get a whipple.

We ran kooks headers with off road h pipe coupled with the Borla S type cat back on our 13 Boss for a bit. The sound was incredible and actually, not very loud. The green cats and touring is going to sound pretty damn awesome though:)

Just let us know when you're ready:)

Awesome, and yes, you need some tires! I can tell you that the MPSS are light years ahead of the stock Pirelli's on a FI car. Though with the power you're making hooking anything up at WOT in 2nd and 3rd should be relatively exciting:hail: And ditto on the cold startup, borders on obnoxious, but mine seems to tone down quickly for cruising speeds.
