Well, if possible I don't want it to really be silent. I want to hear something, just not quite as much as my ScoobySport has to say. Well, I love the sound of it, but I am tired of being descriminated against because my car is loud if that makes any sense... I remember my '03 WRX and it was waaaay too quiet. I also didn't like the whistle when I let off sometimes..

If mcdrama will let me hear his and he might be down to swap, then that will do nicely. Haven't heard a stromung yet though.

I had the sti axle back on my car (stromung all the way back) and it is louder than if you had it on a stock exhaust due to no resonator in the midpipe.

There is a clip on WRXFanatics of my car with catless DP + Crucial Catback Prototype vs catless DP & Stock STi exhaust. It's a pretty good comparison for sound.

Not exactly the same...

So do you still need an STi axleback to play with or not. I have it ready to go, just need a $400 Deposit that you will get back, preferably cash jk!!!! If you still need one to mess around with, you are more then welcomed to come check it out.
