My exhaust. *Movie with Sound*

OK well here is my exhaust. Sorry for the bad quality but the MPG was 15 mb and don't think u want to sit here and sit through that.

Apex-i N1 muffler
2 1/4" Custom Piping
Kamikaze Header (no cat)
AEM CAI
Venom 400

Edit*** here is a better quality file for those of you who don't mind waiting a tad bit longer. It's only 2.3 mb.

thats nice. I really like how it sounds. Does the muffler always rattle like it did when you shut the car off? (better verb might be "vibrate") Also, have you considered putting some heat tape right above the muffler to either prevent the exhaust from discoloring your car or to perhaps dampen the vibration? kinda like this:

I'm with WhiteCastle...I like the deeper, throatier sounding exhausts more. That's too loud and raspy for me. All that matters is that you like it.

Ehh it was deep and a lot more quite. Then I installed the header and it's ear piercing now. Not sure what's going to happen once I get my pnp head and intake manifold but I hope it doesn't make that much of a difference.

As for the vibration. It's not bad at all, just when I turn on or off the car is kind vibrates. I have tape all along the inside of the bumper because I could start to see burn marks, but as for the outside of the bumper, nothing has happend yet and I've have the exhaust for about 7 months.

I was looking into getting the Tanabe Extension pipe along with the apex-i n1 cat-back exhaust, just don't feel like shoveling out the money when I don't have it.

i think its a little too loud and rough sounding for me... i have the N1 muffler too... its quiet but when you get on the gas it has a deeper tone, im not running a header though. The video is koo though! ever think of putting in the silencer? or do you not mind it being loud?

Ok well sounds like most people here don't like it.....it's changed a lot since I put the header on. I used to have a quite low rumble and now I have this really loud, as someone said "ricey" tone to it. Not much I can do about it except buy a full cat-back, but I don't feel like shelling out that much money.

Thanks for the comments, I guess, and hope you all don't see me on the street or something. LoL.

Who cares? You do what you want to your car because "it's what you wanted"... bottom line at the end of the day it's your car, nobody elses might be ricey to them, but bad *** to you... keep that in mind bro

my car used to sound like that..till i put on a resinator. but n/e ways..u know for the vibrations, it might be the piping hitting your back axel...thats what mine was, and it did the same thing. check the piping right before the muffler, see if hits anything.
