Nice, I'm definitly jealous how does the full exhaust sound on the car? I'm looking at picking up headers and mid pipes soon.

I look forward to seeing all your beasts in the spring. Mine comes out of it's winter nap as soon as the snow if off the road. Thanks.

Yeah I'm excited to see these beasts in person we'll all have to figure out a time to meet at.

It sounds glorious at anything near WOT, especially above 3k rpm. It has a little drone around 800-1100 or something like that but it doesn't really bother me.

4doors is your exhaust stock? If I didn't have Dinan exhaust I've heard very good things about Timmay tips.

Do you have any video clips of your exhaust? I know it won't do it justice at all. As for my exhaust, it has Dinan mufflers that were on it when I bought it. It's a good volume but I like louder exhausts haha

I don't have any clips of my setup, but I'm trying to find somebody with a nice HD video camera that I could use to make a good video of exhaust noise. I might also try an audio recorder that could maybe give a more accurate sound.

I like the volume levels - daily driving sound is reasonable but sounds amazing when giving it a little bit more.

Could also meet up if you want to hear it in person!

So I drove by a lake near my house today and I had the inspiration to hold a sub-zero meet on a lake somewhere (followed by a cruise to a coffee shop or something). Any of the winter DD guys interested or would you prefer to stick to solid ground?

Also, anybody interested in buying a Dinan E39 front strut tower brace? I am selling mine, but I want to give local guys a chance to buy it before posting it on the broader section. It is clean and in very good shape. $375.

What lake would we hold it on? Sounds like a fun idea.

I'm in Plymouth and 4doors? you are in Anoka, right? Keca, where are you? Any other people interested in joining?

I say we find a lake that we can all make it to that has easy access for our cars - I'd imagine that some launches would be too steep for some of our cars
