Sound Demo: Ace 350 Header/Overpipe, Fujitsubo Authorize R Catback

Obligatory note about headphones being required to get a decent sense of the sound.

This is a long video, mainly because I'm not sure anyone else actually has this combination; if they do, there aren't videos of it that I've been able to find. I wanted to include lots of sound samples for folks considering something similar.

2015 Subaru BRZ. Only relevant mods to this video are:
- ACE 350 4-2-1 Catless EL Header and Overpipe
- Fujitsubo Authorize R Catback
- Delicious Tuning Tune

I'm not an expert in audio recording; I just used my cheap, little, stereo Olympus external microphone. Hooked up to the GoPro. GoPro placed where it was to hopefully allow you to see the tachometer at some points as a reference.

Video Timestamps, and microphone placement:

Microphone 10-12' away at camera level.
- 0:00 Cold start, then 1,000 RPM idle

Microphone on top of rear bumper, just behind trunk lid.
- 0:22 Casual driving, cruising, a few downshifts
- 1:27 Harder acceleration
- 1:42 Launch control @ 4,000 RPM

Microphone 20' away at camera level. Sorry about the wind noise!
- 1:54 Casual acceleration
- 2:07 Return cruise and downshift
- 2:18 Harder acceleration
- 2:30 Launch control @ 4,000 RPM

Microphone on top of rear bumper, just behind trunk lid.
- 2:41 General cruising, downshifts

Microphone on passenger seat just forward of headrest.
- 4:00 Interior noise

- 5:00 Blooper: Launch control downhill, lol.
