Default Problems with rev matching

Maybe some of you now this problem, maybe I am the only one.

Since I have installed my b-pipe/muffler, the noise in the car is so loud. My ears are deaf from that kind of deep roaring.

Since that, my "feeling" for the revs and gears is almost gone completely. Now I realize that I`ve driven my car by feeling the vibration and hearing the engines scream.

I take my curves like a beginner now. Not able to find the right gear/revs.

I`m pissed

I actually use the exhaust to hear my throttle much better.

That must suck. I'm the exact opposite

You want to feel more vibration? Do what I did, install both the Energy Suspension and Prothane motor mount inserts. You won't be able to ignore what your engine is doing.

put up the windows and listen to the motor...
if that doesn't work, put your stock exhaust back on - it's not really that bad!
