Do they all sound like this, or is it the TT-RS treatment?
So now my question to you Dave, do all 5 cyl's sound like that?
Have you gotten the Vr6 Fiero to stand still long enough to make a new video and pictures of the new exhaust sound? More pictures? (Interior, engine under cover, driving footage, exhaust system, nice pictures for desktop backgrounds?)

I tried to convince Joey that the VR6 needs more backpressure, but she really loves the rumble-pop on deacceleration. The VR6 sounds similar to a Harley with race pipes. For an experiment, I'll take a video in my gold GT with stock engine to see if it still pops.
Have you got a chance to figure out if it was the camera of the exhaust?

Max, The five cylinders do sound good with an aftermarket exhaust. Joey's VR6 has a much sweeter sound with the new exhaust that I installed. It is less obnoxious and deeper. I have the car all apart right now, so I should be able to get some pics that you want. The camera I have isn't very good for videos, but if I get a few minutes of "me time", I'll go down to Best Buy and pic up a new video camera. We will be taking the VR6 to the Bluegrass Fiero meet in Kentucky next weekend. I'm certain it will be ready for the trip. Dave

Buy it online. Much cheaper, and better selection. If you want to save money: www.overstock.com Some modern picture cameras take pretty nice video, in case you need both. Is the new exhaust still Magnaflow, or did you use Borla?
Can't wait to see more pictures.

The exhaust is still Magnaflow. I used this muffler and turned the Porsche tips upside down...I think they look better that way. I had C2 do some fine tuning on the ecu and I should have it back tomorrow (hopefully). http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MPE-14277/

We are located minutes off of GSP exit 88 in Lakewood. If you want to come by and see the projects, let me know and I'll make sure the VR6 is there. The shop info is: Autobahn Automotive 40 Chestnut St. Lakewood, NJ 08701 732-363-5552
The Haus of Guru is my side business located in my main shop. I am currently looking to relocate my shop to a larger location. Right now I have 3000 sq ft and I need more than that. I'm hoping to relocate to Jackson or Toms River which is less than 5 miles from my current location.
