love the header and the overpipe, zero drone with the oem muffler, but, I would skip the titanium front pipe if I were to do it again. it has awesome throttle response, but it sounds really bright

Ordered the UEL / overpipe this week, hopefully installing this weekend. Will try to post a before and after install sound clip.

I dont have the Tomei front pipe anymore. Bright as in, higher pitch vs low pitch. sorry for the technical term... played in orchestra for years and it`s more or less a jargon I guess

tomei UEL header and overpipe sound

This setup with a catted front pipe I think is great for someone not looking to get to loud.

Same thing on mines, just had to let it wear in with the car for a couple hundred miles then it went away.
