that one sounded pretty cool. wonder what kinda piping it took to get that sound? Wonder if there'd be enough room to do something close to that, if you removed the trunk.

They can definitely sound great at idle. Here are two clips of the Golden86 car when he still owned it. Worked over 3800sc, no cat, 2 into 1 into 2 exhaust.

Idle: http://media.putfile.com/3800SC-Idle and driving: http://videos.streetfire.ne...c16-9e03b1856b5b.htm Adding a cat quieted down slightly, but the intake whine is still there.

I agree that it is TOTALLY a matter of preference, but personally, I cant get enough of it.
