Exotic sound?

My fave is MXP with test pipes, but I was afraid that it would be too loud for to live with long term.

Here is HKS with Kinetix HFC on ilive2win Z, YouTube - z34 getting tuned

The video doesn't really do this exhaust a justice. You got to hear it in person.

^^^ I have watched your video so many times ha but I cant really hear what it sounds like it seems like all dyno videos make the exhaust system same the exact same as any other, can you take a new video with fly bys, or take offs, or W.O.T.? If you can that would be much appreciated

Just had my Invidia Gemini installed today. I have to say that I am extremely happy with it. I just had a friend drive the car around so that I can hear it and it sounds really exotic to me. You can't go wrong with this exhaust.

FYI....Test Pipes will make it sound a little raspy...If you're cool with that then
