Some people say it's loud, imho they're not nearly as loud enough to get a ticket. And it's not ugly fart can ghetto civic sounding loud lol.

I love mine. Deep low growl while cruising the city, then opens up very aggressive when you get on it. Minimum drone but controllable, I don't even notice it and you won't have it so long as you're in the right gear. I always get
compliments on the way the car sounds.
The first time I started it after install I'm not gonna lie I was like Holy Sh1t?!
Haha after a few days I got used to it, sounds like a sports car should.
I plan on pairing them with AAM's midpipe soon to complete the set up.

Definitely go for the short tails, or have custom work done. I debated for months whether or not I wanted them. I was afraid of it being way too loud. I decided on going to a local shop and having them custom make my own "short tails". It was much cheaper and the sound is essentially the same. The first day I had the work done, I was like WOW this thing is really loud. After awhile though, you realize its not all that loud. It does sound like a sports car should. It is fairly loud when you get on it (sounds amazing, have had many compliments) but if you are driving "normal" or cruising the interstate, you will barely notice it is even there.
