I notice I'm driving with my window open nowadays, just to listen to the exhaust. Definitely louder, in a good way, but not obnoxious when driving civilized.
I also have the HKS CBE and dual resonated FP. At very low rpms, like when gently parking, the car is definitely less boomy than it was with only the CBE+FP, which is good (for my neighbors anyways).
I modded the tune file to tone down the cold start, which still has a little presence but not enough to piss off the neighbors too much. Lol. Still need to do some more data logging and tweak the tune now.

Cool! I think this thing is one of the most under-rated headers out there, really nice quality, long tube, option for a high flow cat/ceramic coating. Car is so much quicker and more fun in everyday driving than before, and it has a really nice sound especially around 5k+ where it just howls. Everything else on my car is stock except a Greddy SP Elite axle back, so my cold start isn't too bad
