No problem here. Rather throaty, actually. At least from what I'm using (APex'i N1 at an angle.)

I dont have any vids but i run a kteller tubing kit with a round magnaflow flwothrough muffler in the center section and an oval magnaflow flow through muffler in the rear and my car is rather quiet considering. i was trying to make it as quiet as possible. its abotu as loud outside as a neon stock maybe a little louder. inside isnt to bad either. and weather im half throttle or full throttle exhaust note doesnt change which i like

Now when the gate opens, thats a whole other story LOL

3" mandrel piping, Cherrybomb 3"x35" glasspack, and a dynomax ultraflo oval muffler and I'll never look back. It is easily the most quiet 3" I have heard and the best sounding.

The muffler itself makes a huge difference. I ran a 70mm Burns muffler with no resonator and it was painfully loud. I switched to an 80mm Top Fuel with no resonator and it's much more bearable.

i literally just finished my exhaust yesterday. 3" kteller kit w/ vibrant flat black :thumpsup:
i've had open downpipe for the past ~6 months (and got tired of getting pulled over), so anything is quiet compared to that!

yes, i have a massive leak on my flex pipe cuz it scrapes on everything

I run skunk2 3 inch piping and a vibrant muffler. Sounds awesome not loud just a low nice tone most of the time you dont even notice it. Even at full boost its sounds nice. The skunk2 muffler was rediculous loud it was like driving a indy car everyday drove me nuts especially for being my daily driver.

of course, while under boost it will be quieter.. what exactly are you looking to achieve? you can run 3 or 4 feet of straight from the dp to rear exit, or run open setup with midway resonator.
