The night I dropped my car off to the transporter to take away, I recorded these very quick videos. It was rather cold out, so I couldn't get on it too much, but I got some decent sounds.
The videos themselves are crappy, but do a decent job of capturing the sound for anyone interested in the exhaust.
My take on the exhaust was:
- Very cheap, can get one used in the 150-250 range
- Tips look like crap, but an easy fix
- Good sound, although a bit of drone with windows up
- More of a bassy muscle car sound, vs. more mid-high frequencies in an exhaust like Corsa
- Wasn't my taste, but I'm sure many others would appreciate it

I thought it sounded great. But..you can tell in the last video exactly where the problem with the drone would be as the tach falls in the 1,700-1,400 rpm range. It's only there for a fraction of a second, but you know it when you hear it.

I have the same exhaust with headers and a straight pipes and man is it loud! It remindes me of an old muscle car I love it. I do have to sacrifice with the drone when the rpms are falling back down though but to me its worth it.
