Am I the only one trying to make my car quieter? I just don't like waking the neighbors up when I pull in after midnight.

Loud is fine at anything over 3k rpms or wot, but when in cruise mode, I like it a little more quiet. Plus, I cranked the car once at a convenience store and a 4 year old girl walking with her mother got startled and hugged her mothers leg. They were about 50 yards aways. There was a Hemi truck parked closer to them that cranked up before I did and it didn't scare her. That's when I know mine is too loud. Plus I can't even hear my radio unless it's turned up.

im not seeing the problem... if you wanna hear loud get TSP true duals and take the sound deadening material out from under your carpet lol

So I'm halfway there. Yeah I got the TD's at a time when I thought loud is the cool thing to do. Now, not so much.

That's because you're not in high school anymore. Loud was "cool" when we people are 18....usually people with ridiculously loud exhaust just want attention, even if their cars are slower than what they sound.

sweetbmxrider 04-20-2009 02:44 PM

matt loves gmmg!!

I wasn't talking about you, lol. I was just generally speaking.

Besides, doesn't your car run in the 13's? :moon::moon::moon: (j/k, I have no idea what your run, if you've even run your car)

LTb1ow 04-20-2009 03:18 PM

Nope, never run.

But yea, I was trying so hard to just not stop but it seemed like I caught every light on 35....

Call me a hypocrite, but I hate mustangs with a passion for this. All you need is a catless x or H pipe, and they sound fast as ****, but in reality, they are still high 13 second cars. Let me ask you this, how fast does a car need to be for you to think it's okay to be loud?

LTb1ow 04-20-2009 07:25 PM

LT1 fastttt!

ib4200 04-20-2009 07:36 PM

did it happen before i was there?

LTb1ow 04-20-2009 07:39 PM

If you are the kid who bought the T top, then no, happened on my way home.

ib4200 04-20-2009 07:42 PM

yeah thats me, my name is joe by the way, your car sounded awesome, i wish i coulda heard it broken lol.

LTb1ow 04-20-2009 07:44 PM

Yea it has that effect on people. ;)

LOL

ib4200 04-20-2009 07:49 PM

have you run it yet?

LTb1ow 04-20-2009 07:50 PM

Nope. Its just a bolt on car, so you know no records or going fast......

Heh.

emolineaux 04-20-2009 07:53 PM
