When I went to pick up the car, the car was sitting in the service bay. The service manager said he'd bring it by while I was taking care of the bill. Suddenly, I heard a really loud sound coming from behind me. I asked the service advisor what that was and both of them just looked at me and grinned. I realized then that it was my car! He revved the car a couple times for me and I couldn't stop grinning. It sounds extremely good. A definitely plus for those that like the classic flat-6 sound. In fact, I'd go as far as saying that it almost sounds as good as a friend's RUF 993 albeit not quite as loud.
When I got in the car, I immediately noticed that there wasn't any droning or resonance coming from the rear. I also noticed that there seemed to be a bit more power coming off the line and moving at speed.
I LOVE this exhaust!
