Like it had some rasp as well, but I can tell the difference between hiss and rasp (and I happen to actually like both, in moderate doses). When I put the HFCs and CBE on my car and heard that hiss, it put a smile on my face, not a frown. On and I've seen people complaining that after they installed HFCs and a CBE, the exhaust is loud. Well duhhhhh!!! What do people expect?

I agree, frankly I'm tired of hearing people bitch about sounds they weren't expecting to hear. This isn't F1, companies don't have multi-million dollar budgets to test out whether the exhaust has a slight hiss when you let off the throttle. When you add an exhaust that isnt STOCK, you are bound to get some sort of sideeffect you weren't expecting. Rattling, fitment, hissing, etc. It's going to happen folks. Feel lucky when it doesn't.
