I just installed a Fabspeed Super Sport and I have to say I am not impressed. It is quiet outside the car (not much different from stock really) and it is loud inside the car.

I am still hitting .7 bar... The car doesn't feel quicker. I think I may have to go to straight pipes.

Are you sure it's a Super Sport, there's nothing quiet about those exhausts!

That's what I was told when purchasing them and I have no reason not to believe it. It is loud... In the car. Outside it is not very loud at all.

something must be wrong. There is nothing quiet about the Fab SS. Mine sets off all the car alarms in the garage when I fire her up. The stock exhaust sounded like a blender comparitively.

I have a feeling I bought a quiet. Anyone in Miami or north of here have a Fabspeed Loud I could put mine next to? See if I ended up with a quiet.
