No sound clips. It is loud and resonates.
There is no way to prevent CELs, but you can pick up a device at any Pep Boys or other nationwide auto supply shop that permits you to quickly clear the code and CEL whenever it occurs. I simply ignore the CEL.

Thanks for the answers craig. Im interested in a 3inch piping exhaust which is loud and I can still hear the turbo whistle like on my current setup (100 cell cat and muffler bypass). What I dont like about what I have is the loss of back pressure - thus loss of tq.

ps - at this point I really dont care about "drone."

To the contrary, it is likely increasing my torque and bringing it on earlier.

We're really looking forward to heading out there to see what GIAC/EVO can do with with the tuning. The hardware is all done now it's up to them to weave some magic One thing is for sure, the white turbo is faster than my old car ever was and the 3.8L car is less laggy and even faster still
