I love the looks of those tips. So how about that sound clip, OP?

UPDATES!

Find the update in Post #2! Here!

PS. Unfortunately due to a busy day today and tomorrow sound and video clips will need to wait until this weekend.

Nice!

This review sealed the deal for me, now I just need to get my car! Another 6-7 months to go....

EDIT:

I went back to your site and looked through ALL the pics and need to clarify MY ERROR. Seems I fixated on the V-Band pic as it caught my attention pretty good. The other pics, especially the installed ones, are consistent with the piece in this thread.

I still think that satin polishing AFTER welding would be a great value to the customer, though.

OH YES!! I see the picture! That is a generic picture we used from the older polished systems. We need to change that on our all systems! We are on it!

When we did the brushing of the tubing, going back and brushing the welds off was very hard to make consistent at all junctions on "all" systems without spending a hour a system hand finishing it. It actually ends up making a funny pattern where the brushing doesn't match. So we opted to leave them raw to there would be consistency from system to system(BRZ, STI, WRX, EVO....)

I do like the feedback for sure on this. Its the kind of thing we need to hear so we can improve things and suite more and more customers.

You forgot to mention Scott can drive BRZ's pretty well. lol. :)

I thought that was a given? lol Not he just needs to teach me how to drive one at Lime Rock Park :P

Thanks for the awesome write up Sony. I have a WRB BRZ on the way as well and have to say that after seeing those SSR Comp Cs on there I am definitely going that route. Absolutely love the direction you are going with this build.

They are SSR Type-C's not Comp-C's, and I appreciate the compliments! Thanks!

I've got some great recordings from inside my garage!!!

Unfortunately the driving recordings inside the cabin didn't go as well :( The old cheapo radioshack inverter I used to power the recording interface I own is not a Pure-Sinewave unit and is therefore introducing a terrible square wave noise into my recordings. Hopefully I can get this thing on the Dyno at @Kaizen Tuning where I can use wall power and get some really clean recordings. We'll see! In the meantime I will post the three recordings I have, I just need to throw them up on dropbox and post the link. :)

They aren't video's, they are straight Audio Only recordings! They are a standard WAV file, you should be able to listen to them on any audio replay software.

Can't get Uncompressed/Unmodified Audio out of a video with just Pro-sumer level hardware, usually consumer level stuff compressed the shit out of the audio and video which is why it sounds terrible. Don't even get me started on Youtube...thats a whole different level of audio compression and screwups...

Besides, you don't need Video to hear how a car sounds. :)
