Hi all,

This past Monday I had the TRD exhaust installed on my BRZ, have put on about 200 miles or so on it. I also have the TRD cold air intake.

How loud is this exhaust supposed to be? The exhaust is loud enough where I don't hear the engine until it gets past 4k rpm, and interior get loud and boomy - definitely too loud for someone in the back (short friends) to chat with driver/front passenger. Drones/gets boomy during highway cruising. So far my experience doesn't seem to match the reviews (quiet when cruising, no droning, etc), then again maybe my expectations were different.

I guess the better question to ask - for those with the TRD CAI or deleted intake sound tube, at what point in the rev range are you able to hear the engine over the exhaust in the interior with the windows up?
