Exhaust sound.

  1. I own an RS265 and previously did the mid box chop with straight pipe, cheap as chips and made a nice difference, slightly louder at idle, but a lot more pops and bangs, mainly if in sport mode though. Anyway I decided to do the rear silencer chop, replaced with straight pipe, also dirt cheap and I wasn’t expecting much difference based on YouTube vids, however there is quite a bit of difference, the idling sound is quite a bit louder, very happy with that, driving is also quite a bit louder and even more pops and bangs, however it is slightly droney, (if that’s the right word) I also feel although it’s louder you also lose a bit of the whhooosh sound you get on full throttle.. for now I’m happy, I like my cars to make a noise, thought I’d share for those who doing just the mid box or mid box and rear box. To be honest sound vids don’t rely capture the difference so well.

  2. The mid pipe chop drones as well for me but at speeds higher than national speed limit lol. My friend did a road trip with me and found it annoying sometimes but i didn't care
     
  3. Did u do this with a akra exhaust or standard? Looking to take silencer out of akra as mine is factory extra and believe there is a silencer?
