camcorder videos seem to have really poor audio quality, especially in the bass region. I've noticed this with a lot of "how it sounds" videos.

I've recorded exhausts with a decent measurement microphone, and when played through a stereo (or good headphones) instead of PC speakers, it sounds FAR, far better than the youtube videos of exhausts do.

Most PC speakers suck.

There's another option, if people want to take the longer route. modify the sound to mimick the sound of the exhaust at that time. It takes time, patience and good software but you can try to get rid of that "Its my handheld" quality.

Also, cruising on the freeway you wouldn't know I had a full exhaust system. I consider this a good thing, and so does my brain - drone is no fun
I just installed a mid-pipe to my RB cat-back setup. It sounds a little meaner but not too much louder. Nice little power boost too and I'm not saying placebo. 4' flames when parked, no ****.

I'm looking at the RB single tip cat-back and their mid-pipe too. Not sure if I want the resonated mid or the non res. Either way though, how about the check engine light? Obviously that comes on with the cat delete. Any way to defeat that? Or just live with it?

Any Series 2 owners want to give our single exit a whirl? I would be extending a special discount on one unit just so I can know for sure if it will fit and what is needed to be done to make it happen.

Shoot me a pm if anyone is interested!

I just got the AP midpipe and still have my stock exhaust, I have heard great things about ap midpipe + racing beat exhaust. I know you have a different midpipe but how much more sound did the exhaust give you over the midpipe, or did you install them both at the same time? The sound I have now with only a midpipe is just about right(pretty loud though), I wanna go with a bit of calmer exhaust and I heard RB exhausts quiet down the ap midpipe rasp as well.
