VERY VERY VERY nice Gro. Can't tell by the audio, but it sounds (no pun intended) like you may have done some serious sound deadening / insulating cause it appeared quite quiet in the cockpit - no wind noise either - what's your secret. I Llike to have a nice sounding car too, but I like the choice of putting the window down and getting an earfull - when I want to.
Nice vid too, must have had a good stretch of clear road to use.

I have a 4.11 final drive in the car is probably why the 5th seems low as crap. I also have larger diamter tires on the stock 15" rims for the winter (205/60's instead of the factory 205/55's).
As for the sound...the camera is the reason it sounds so quiet. It isn't excruciatingly loud when I'm full throttling it, but its close. I have a silencer i put in the car normally when I go on long trips. The vid was taken w/out the silencer installed. THE camera muffled the crap out of the sound, it is a canon S200. plus the fact I was holding the camera while steering with that arm, I might have covered the Mic area a lil bit.
I'm gonna try to get a friend to get a vid of me driving the car while they stand outside.
And, my car isn't insulated lol. I removed the floor sound deadening under the carpet. I don't get that much road noise but I have a crappy droning sound from the new tires I put on. I also get decent wind noise at high speeds. My window seals are coming out of place & are already bent out of shape and impossible to correct. I refuse to pay 77 dollars each for new ones from the dealership

so is that the 2.5 tranny? I have stupid 65 series tires on my car, but it only makes a slight difference.
