OK guys, I got some soundclips today, but I got them while I was in my car. I'll have to have someone record how it sounds from the outside later on:

Starting Engine Up (notice how immediate it starts up with the new HEI module & external coil):

Accelerating up a Mountain outside of my college:

3rd to 5th acceleration (70mph to about 120mph):

2nd to 4th acceleration (30mph to about 80mph):

My car is a MX-ZE with OBX / SSautochrome hotshot knock-off headers, carsound 2.5" free-flow cat, 2.5" resonator and a JUN titanium muffler. Picture:

Why are you selling your mazdaspeed skirts? Got something else in mind?

holy crap! why do your gears go higher than mine?? lol.. my 4th gear doesnt go up to 110!!!

but nice sounding exhaust man

??? it went to maybe 102 by the time i upshifted to 5th in that one vid.

o nm.. lol but still! i dont think i've ever made it above 90! maybe its my tranny?

that's a nice sound..gro how's is the intensity of the sound..loud or quiet..I can't really tell from the outside of your car..I'm more worried about the police..got pulled over over 5 times and my sound was like yours but probably louder

its more intense than the camera lets it seem. Inside it does drone annoyingly on the highway, but not too bad compared to some people's cars i've seen.

On the outside its also pretty loud. I'l get a vid clip of that maybe later today.

I have a silencer you can pop into the muffler & secure with a screw that works awesomely. It quiets it to LESS than stock levels which surprised me. Only problem is, it blocks the exhaust completely and you can feel a difference in power when you install it.

I got a stupid question...
If you are going to put the silencer on, why even buy a muffler?

b/c its nice to have..i take it out when i'm in college b/c i only cruise around town and don't mind turning heads with my loud-azz exhaust.

but when i go home (180 mile trip...2.5 hours) i shove the silencer in so i can enjoy my music without the exhaust drowning it all out.

hey Gro I wonder if you can feel any performance gains after installing OBX / SSautochrome headers?

Now I cant wait to get my JUN muffler on
