Thought this was a funny picture. Did a semi-aggressive canyon run but still in my break-in period. 50% throttle, 5k rev limit, 50% braking.
Since I increased my rev limit to 5000 RPM, I finally heard the amplified intake noise in person. I honestly think it sounds great. Sort of howls through the midrange. Very smooth. I think it fits the character of this 2nd gen. Admittedly I might have strange taste. I also liked the sound of VW's soundaktor device on my mk6 GTI. I'm going to leave ASC on and will probably skip an exhaust (similar to how if I owned an S2000 I wouldn't want an exhaust to mask the intake noise).
Great day for a drive btw. Love this red color.
