I was rather impressed w/ the stock exhaust...had a great tone, and wasn't cheap sounding (the rasp I commented on earlier is cheap sounding)...it's what some of you like, but you also owned Honduh's in the past...sorry that was mean...but likely true. and db was very good for my ears.
Anyway, Maybe it sounds better when under load (driving)...maybe it doesn't, in a few weeks I'm sure someone will have a video to show. I'll stay stock, it's loud enough for a luxury family sedan. Last edited by Mrcarcrazy; 06-08-2012 at 03:58 PM.. |

To me, the stock clip sounds better. Probably best to hear them live.

I know that most videos I've seen make the N55 sound hollow and almost like a diesel straight six, but in person it has a very deep, growly tone which I completely love. Also, it sounds much deeper under load. Revving it at idle sounds much more hollow, as is expected with any motor. |

honestly, it sound awful for $12xx.
Maybe you should let car warm up completely & re-film it. There's a difference of a cold start & rev, and warm start & rev.

Like a lot of people mentioned, needs to be recorded with a better device. As of right now, stock is way better imo.

Save up and get a 'real' exhaust, a Akrapovic. If u going to put an exhaust on a luxury car you should go all the way, don't half @SS it. .02
