An extra 20+dB at cruise? No thanks.

If any of you are young and have long freeway commutes each day, I would recommend against making your car loud. Unless you don't think hearing is important.

Well, these are totally different cars... but I gotta tell you this was the best exhaust I had heard for my RSX and I never tired of it. It was extremely quiet when idle and sounded beautiful at WOT: Very deep, not raspy at all, no highway drone, very pleasant to live with and it looked spectacular under the rear bumper. But of course this is a different car and id have to really hear it in person to see if it really compares to the one I owned

PS: I'm guessing yet again another letdown on scion's part . No 10 series today either... how long will this go on?

Just got my VIN for the car. Will be here at the end of month and added the TRD exhaust, rear appliqué, and wheel locks.

Seems like my car should show up tomorrow morning. If my dealer got the email this morning updating the status to "imminent", and that means it will arrive within 24 hours, then the truck would be in the window for either after-hours delivery tonight, or early tomorrow morning.

What could possibly hang it up now?!

Mine was supposed to be on a ship on the 16th, it missed the boat. I'm guessing that backlog at the port pushed a lot of folks back.

Correcto. The dealer is getting a pair on the lot on the 24th (from the ones that hit the port on the 17th), unfortunately they were already spoken for. He said mine will be a week or possibly two later...so yeah, I'll be in that second batch.
