From the videos I've seen it sounds fantastic, but I'm guessing it'd be way too much to live with day to day.

Let me know if you find someone cause I'd love to hear it too.

My wife thinks the stock exhaust on my 2008 is too loud. Ha this is a mod she would go all out to veto.

The beauty of the Capristo is that you can toggle it from quiet to loud.

On quiet mode, it's very similar to stock, only when you let it rip, will it get really loud.

But it's not a boomy loud, it's a raspy loud. Here is a brief tunnel vid I made (only 3 seconds long) to show how loud it can get in a tunnel heh heh

+1 on the great sound. The build quality as well as the sound when loud or quiet is excellent!

thanks for all the feed back i agree its loud and from the research ive done it also seems to be of great quality. loud is what i am looking for along with performance. the car is not a DD therefore loud is no problem but as one said it does have the toggle valve to go from loud to louder. just wanted to see if anyone is socal had the system so i could maybe get a more personal experence before i buy.

The videos are better than nothing but try your best to listen in the flesh.
