Am I the only one trying to make my car quieter? I just don't like waking the neighbors up when I pull in after midnight.

Yes DDs are meant to be quieter, toys are meant to be loud and fun

Loud is fine at anything over 3k rpms or wot, but when in cruise mode, I like it a little more quiet. Plus, I cranked the car once at a convenience store and a 4 year old girl walking with her mother got startled and hugged her mothers leg. They were about 50 yards aways. There was a Hemi truck parked closer to them that cranked up before I did and it didn't scare her. That's when I know mine is too loud. Plus I can't even hear my radio unless it's turned up.

So I'm halfway there. Yeah I got the TD's at a time when I thought loud is the cool thing to do. Now, not so much.

That's because you're not in high school anymore. Loud was "cool" when we people are 18....usually people with ridiculously loud exhaust just want attention, even if their cars are slower than what they sound.

I wasn't talking about you, lol. I was just generally speaking.

Besides, doesn't your car run in the 13's? (j/k, I have no idea what your run, if you've even run your car)

Call me a hypocrite, but I hate mustangs with a passion for this. All you need is a catless x or H pipe, and they sound fast as ****, but in reality, they are still high 13 second cars. Let me ask you this, how fast does a car need to be for you to think it's okay to be loud?
