Default asp cat back impressions inside

its orgasmic... everyone i know will agree with me in saying that it sounds amazing, absolutely amazing.

from inside the car at idle you hear a deep smile forming growl. while cruising its pretty quiet, but louder than stock(barely ,imo).

however as soon as you roll on the throttle it wakes up and sounds brutal. i have yet to hear it from the outside ( other than idle) because i only let one other person drive my car, and i havent had a chance to do that yet.

everone that has heard it from outside agrees. it sounds amazing. they all say that from the sound you dont expect to see an audi drive by. they all say its super aggressive, without being too annoyingly loud.

as far as power goes ive gained a good amount top end. as far as fats goes i gained .4 seconds, and thats with someone else in the car!!!

the sound clips online dont give it justice, its much much sicker in person.

the only thing im concerned about ( my fault probably) is that at around 26-2800 rpm i feel a vibration through the arm rest, and some change starts to rattle. i havent gotten a chance to put it on the lift again to check if its rubbing on the first bend.

if it is rubbing its my fault ( obviously) and ill re adjust. dont think for a second that its a manufacturing flaw... these things are perfect. works of art.
