Thumbs up Installed!

Hi everyone. I finally recieved my PSI exhaust today and had it installed. WOW. It really sounds great; lag seems to be reduced; and drone and resonance seem to be minimal. I am not an expert on exhausts by any stretch of the imagination and have not had the opportunity to compare the PSI with other brands. Yet, all i can say is that i feel the same excitement today as when i first got my car. Thanks to Neil for his help.

Did you get the loud or the quiet? How's the resonance at freeway speeds?

PSI

I got the loud version. As far as resonance, there really isn't any of note. I do tend to get lazy and put it in sixth at low speeds and at that point, some drone can be felt inside the cab. I guess this exhaust is going to force me to be a better driver!

Thanks Rahul, was yours stock before the PSI? Have you compared PSI to Europipe? I'm trying to decide between the two of them.

psi

yes my exhaust was stock before the psi. I haven't compared it to the europipe, which i understrand is also very good. Have only listened to sound clips. Nevertheless, I really think from my untrained little ears that the psi sounds and makes me feel like iam in a race car. I think you'll enjoy it.

loud is the way to go, have the same in my car.
Took the car out last night and was pulling 1.3-1.4 bar and the exhaust was just screaming, open your windows and hear the whistling of the turbo's!!!

That is a good way to describe it. The PSI exhaust does give u a more heightened state of alert than the EP does. The EP makes the car sound nicer than stock. The PSI makes it sound racier than both.
