Haven't done it just yet. But the interior noise is just a tad unbearable. At least for me the exhaust is louder in the car than it is in the car.

Over the weekend I changed transmission and differential fluid to Motul 300 and threw the WRX wheels on. I am kind of liking the grey on silver.

I also had a picture of this ridiculous set-up of a 70-200mm in juxtaposition with one of those tiny Sennheiser shoe mount microphones that I thought I would share.

Really?! I guess everyone does have different tolerance then. I think that is where the Dezod sounds at it's best... In the Cabin

"louder in the car than it is in the car" Confusing.

I do which it was louder at higher RPMs but the engine sound takes over at that time.

Must have been a short between my brain and keyboard. Should have been "louder in the car that it is outside the car".

But yeah between 2-3,5k it's just too loud in the car in my opinion. Feels like there's more sound in the cabin than there is coming out the tail pipes. Once you get into the 4-7k range it actually feels quieter than the lower RPM's but I don't daily that high in the rev range.

In the air between going back to stock or getting a perrin resonated.

lol short between brain and keyboard.

I went on thinking it was just loud in the cabin as well the first day, but after that I was wrong. I noticed a bunch of pedestrians break necks hearing the sound I can't really notice inside. Remember your ears are in the cabin lol.

If you want dead silence go Invidia Q300, for the love of god don't go stock again.

perfect is subjective to your taste.

getting the car back from the dealership for diagnosis.
I had some issues with the clutch squeaking, odd start up noise (metal screech sounding), and 6th gear grind.
Turns out the first issue is bulletin 12-190-15R in this link:
http://techinfo.subaru.com/search/li...archPub=Search

basically the assembly is faulty in my car and there is movement between 2 layers of metal, making a squeak or ratcheting noise.

The start up noise seems to be the fuel pump, although I've never heard anyone else having the same issue. I've had crickets for months btw.

Lastly, the gear grind was a synchro failure.

All in all, I'm getting everything replaced! Subaru is taking care of me this time around... :P
