Afterburner Vortex, how loud is it?
I currently have a Prodrive backbox on my WRX hawkeye the rest is stock pipework and i'm getting an Afterburner straight through 2.5" centre section installed next week for a little bit extra sound from the exhaust. If i'm happy with the volume and sound i'll stop there (famous last words).
If i was to swap out the Prodrive backbox for the Afterburner Vortex 2.5" backbox later down the line does anyone have experience of how loud this is? I wouldn't want it to be obnoxiously loud on say cold starts etc on early mornings, as i don't want to be too inconsiderate to the neighbours. Just a nice low burble and a good bit of volume when i stomp on the go fast peddle is what i'm after not constant medium to high volume. Cheers. |
I wrote a review of exhausts I've had on here some in the past - will look now.

Darn - Unable to locate the post, might have been on facebook.
Basically in my opinion the Afterburner is a little raspy for my liking. |

Noticeable on tick over, more bum bum bum of the flat four, then from memory open it up and it was a little raspy.
