Got my exhaust on last week, and finally had time to take a video. This is a Magnaflow x pipe where the stock "H" pipe was, and new pipes back to the Magnaflow 14816 mufflers. It's loud. Here's my description from an earlier thread:
And the video:

I would say it's louder, but not bad. Right when you start the car and it idles at about 1-1.2k for 10 seconds or so, I think holy crap, this is loud!oohhh: But when it comes back down to normal idle it is barely louder then stock.
At certain RPM's there is a little drone, maybe 1800-2400 RPM's where it is way louder then stock. But this is only when you aren't on the gas. If you are on it I don't notice it. (maybe because I'm expecting the sound). :M5rev:
I plan on taking a bunch of videos within the next few days. Both inside and out of the cabin, at various RPMs, WOT, etc... I know the video clips can be a little misleading, but I'll still put in my input on the great exhaust debacle.
Personally I love the sound, close to America V8 muscle (I keep thinking of fox body stang with loud exhaust), but still has a little Exotic V8 tone (think ferarri 355, 360). Hard to describe, hopefully my vid clips will better describe the sound. :byee55amg
Oh, the exhuast tips are really big too! I have the 14816's with (I believe) 3.5" tips and I got a few comments about how "badass" my new exhaust was from guys at work. But when I told them the price of everything, they were dumbfounded how everything could be so inexpensive for such great sound and good looks.
Now I just need to get my flex disc replaced ASAP.
