Congratz! I really wanna know how this sounds. How much you can hear it on the inside of the car and about how much did this cost you if you don't mind me asking?
LOOKS GREAT! Major props man!!! I was seriously considering this myself since the rest looks to be straight through. Was curious though, is that the cat that looks all trapezoid shape? Or don't we need cats anymore because of the variable cams? And the exhaust appears to be stainless from what I can tell too. So besides a half inch in diameter, you're pretty much at a cat back system now eh? Either way looks great! Bet it sounds great too!
Sure would! I'll get a sound cut of mine soon enough. Been workin 10s. Not in the mood to do much else but sleep. But heck that does sound MEAN!!!! I WANT THIS!!!
Well after mentioning my name, I got inspired and broke out the recording equipment. Took all but an hour. Threw something together in iMovie and my first post to YouTube. Of course the intake noise gets more aggressive with a load out driving. But you get the idea. Yes it is really that bassy in person. Not ricey at all. Very clean and throaty.
Wow that sounds great! I'd be concerned about puddles though; that grill design forces the hose to be awfully low. Personally I just removed the stock resonator and capped the hole with an oversize pill bottle cap and duct tape.
All that matters is that YOU like it, but this is definitely not the way I want my Focus to sound. Total props though for being the first to do this!! [cheers]
Do a drive by for us brother! Would you say in person this sounds like the FSWERKS race exhaust or stealth? Just curious about the volume. Does sound SUPER loud. Is it REALLY noticeable while driving? Or only when you get on it?
If this is true, I'm even more geeked! No "droning" at highway speeds? Will it wake the neighbors with casual driving? Just trying to be clear before I hack away. I still personally LOVE it!
I knew what I was getting into changing the exhaust on this car since I have done it on two other focus's and GM cars and trucks[8D]
