It's not raspy, it just has a higher pitched sound to it. It sounds kind of choked, and not that powerful. I'm sure it has plenty of power, but it doesn't sound that way. That's my thoughts anyway.

It's not bad, but not exactly what I would look for either.

By the way, those are the some of the best recordings I've heard of exhaust.

Seems like almost every time people try to record their exhaust, they get way too close and overload the microphone and then everything sounds like crap. I mean, if I wanted to hear what the INSIDE of your tailpipes sounded like, I'd let you know.

i got it off a dude with a 2001 ws6, his car got rear ended and broke the borla tips, so his insurance company bought him a whole new exhaust so he just put the new tips on his car and sold me the kit w/out tips

Sorry, not enough space for the rev file. The idle will have to do. Hooker catback with !cat.

Hope those work. The rev file won't sound as good. Not sure why. That is the hooker cat back by the way. With !cat.
Links don't work for me.

Nice, sounds just like my set up but just a little tamer.
