Well I just had to know. Stock headers, cat bypass, fabspeed muffler bypass. I figured you all would get a kick out of it.

In no way, shape or form would this be tolerable for daily use. I threw it on for kicks and will take back off after the weekend. Hell, after half an hour my head was starting to ache!

Used a GoPro mounted on the decklid underneath the whale tail, works really well.

Dave were you winding it out to redline ? didn't sound like it, although its been a while since i have been in my car ..

also how did you mount the gopro ? suction cup mount and tethered it to something for safety ? i loved the camera angles so was wondering.

I only ran it out to redline a couple of times in that video, once being when I was getting on to the highway. The video caught more bass than mid-to-high, so it sounds a little higher pitched in person.

For the gropro I used a suction cup mount and put it on the decklid underneath the whale tail (late 930 tail). The tail does a really nice job of blocking wind noise so I don't need a separate mic, and I wasn't too concerned about it getting blown off so I didn't use a safety cable.
