Exhaust Question
 
Is there a difference in sound between a exhaust on a manual car vs a exhaust on a automatic?

No not really but with an auto you have less control of revs so a droning exhaust might be a LOT more annoying to you

I assume Stock exhaust to stock exhaust?

What do you mean by less control of revs?

Absolutely agreed. Since the auto generally shifts at lower rpm's, it tends to sit in that low rpm deep drone tone. Rather than spooling up the rpm's and getting the full range of exhaust sound with a manual car.

Since I have an auto, that is one of the main reasons I went with a milder sounding exhaust (Greddy SP Elite).
