Default I have heard alot of things in my life.....

....but nothing compares to this.

First of, I am an ASE certified Master automobile technician, and have been "master certified" for the past 7 years. My point is, I have come across ALOT of cars over the years. I modify and tune my own vehicles, and help friends do the same to theirs.

I have never heard and exhaust sound this terrible in my life. And im not talking POS cars or a car with a cracked exhaust manifold or leaking muffler. This is a performance exhaust. I have owned and tuned 4 import 4 cylinder cars, and NONE.....NONE of them sounded this way.... make sure you turn up the sound.

You just can't make a 4 banger sound good.

Ya know, if you put a piece of paper over a comb and blow you get the same sound.

Got a few guys sporting that setup around here.

They're either delivering pizza or delivering the newspaper, mostly are 20 something kids.

This is what they're into now...much like the muscle cars I played with at their age.

Although these things seem way louder than the after market pipes I hear on bikes.

I don't mind that four cylinder buzz...but on that particular application...I couldn't imagine the things it'd make me want to do at sustained levels on the highway.

Sticking an icepick in my friggin' ear comes to mind.

Actually you can make a 4 cylinder sound great. That was just a terrible setup. Here is a 4cylinder that sounds like an indy car.
